about

"IFP's next step in re-publishing albums by drone-ambient heroes Maeror Tri. Obviously it would be redundant to introduce this legendary trio to you yet again. Over the seven years of its existence, they have recorded genre-defining material that has lost none of its relevance even after more than a quarter of a century.

We are pleased to announce "The Beauty of Sadness" - one of the band's most striking albums. An emotional, melancholy, sentimental, melodic drone ambient album, which can be considered a classic of the genre on a par with "Myein". You will search in vain for industrial or noise elements, as featured on the group's more heavy releases, herein the eponymous beauty and sadness reign supreme. This release comes highly recommended for any listener with only a passing interest in Drone-music, be it guitar- and electronic-based

Recorded between October 91 and September 93, "The Beauty of Sadness" became the 11th full-length Maeror Tri tape, which was released in 1996 shortly before their breakup on the very peak of the group's strength. The bonus track "Immersion in Emotion" was recorded around the same sessions as the album itself in October 1993, and first appeared on the video collection "From the Hills of Dream".
15 years have passed since the only CD reissue of the album on the Tantric Harmonies label, during which time the album has become a rarity, completely absent from the market, and one of the group's most sought-after albums.

Our new version of "The Beauty of Sadness" has been fully remastered in 2019 by Peter Andersson (raison d'etre) resulting in a literally shockingly improved sound experience, the erroneously added silent tracks from its earlier CD incarnation have been deleted and the overall previously ubiquitous surface noise removed.
The design has again been created especially for the album by the artist and designer from St. Petersburg Anton Bogdanov, the winner of the Hermitage competition, who previously worked on the reprints of "Mind Reversal", "Peak Experience", "Venenum".

reviews:

"I’m no connoisseur of Maeror Tri’s work, so I don’t know if The Beauty of Sadness is an outstanding work in their catalog. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it does since it’s certainly an excellent album. The title is fitting, because the music is slow and melancholic, but also beautiful. The minimal, repetitive elements put you in a hypnotic state, the ongoing drones and the well-placed sounds make you drift away. The guitars that were used mainly to create the drones can hardly be recognized though the heavy processing, though at times they come to the surface, like in ‘Pandere’. It’s hard to pick a favorite track..." - funprox.com

"This is an essential album to all fans of ambient. The music in this album is the equivalent to sitting on your back porch at twilight, watching the breeze gently flow through the trees, partially covering up a red sun in a purple-gray sky. Makes the hair on my neck stand up. I highly recommend it." - WFLM
