Many times we have spoken of Ataraxia’s new album, “Sylfaera the Fair,” and now the moment has come to share it with you, so that you may decide for yourselves whether our praise was deserved. We believe that every last detail has been crafted with the utmost care, and it is precisely this devotion (beyond their unquestionable talent) that makes this band so truly unique.
It is an immense joy for us to walk this journey alongside them, especially for this particular release: the commemorative thirtieth album of their long and storied career. And what is their own view on physical editions? As enchanting as their music itself:
"We have taken great care with the physical editions. For us, the packaging is not merely a "dress"; it is an integral part of the beauty and artistic essence of this concept album. Aesthetics, content, lyrics, poetic writings, photography, paintings, videos—the magic of all these elements combined—have always been our trademark throughout the years.
Our albums are more than just a series of songs; they are books and sagas. Everything is connected. Our inspiration stems from multiple sources, much like the Italian Renaissance, where arts, philosophy, the beauty of the landscape, and the hearts of men and women were all interconnected. We thank The Circle Music for warmly supporting all of this." (Ataraxia)
