Official press release: Sweden's Black Mark recently inked an exclusive U.S. distribution deal with Relapse Records. The first releases under this deal will be a set of Bathory vinyl picture discs that will see a North American release date of November 27. Then moving forward, all Black Mark catalog items, past and present, will be made available via wholesale and mail-order through Relapse. The Bathory picture disc collection includes all 12 of the band's studio albums, each encased by a 'collection' hard-cover Bathory logo sleeve. Pre-orders for this collection will begin on November 13th. On this partnership, one of the current Black Mark owners Boerje Forsberg comments; "Black Mark is glad to announce that we have become apart of the Relapse family. There is no doubt that Relapse and Black Mark work well together: Metal for the World!"
