How to ensure you reserve your copy of this Limited Edition release (by Jason Curtis)
The Gathering – ‘In the End’ – The approach to press is to secure 170 copies paid for before we go into full production. If we don’t hit that number, all monies paid will be reimbursed in full. Our official campaign began on 1 May and will run up until 31 July. By that point we hope to have secured the minimum 170 orders required to manufacture. The music and artwork will be shared with you once the payment is received and, should we not make that golden number, the music and artwork will remain yours to keep, regardless of a possible reimbursement.
Depending on where you are based, the shipping fee may differ.
Cost per single 12” vinyl is R450, plus shipping, which if you are based within South Africa, will be an additional R250 (door-to-door and within 48 hours of shipping).

I will need your full address to confirm the shipping costs, but the cost of vinyl is R450 per unit beyond ZA. Shipping will not be cheap, but if I ship from Europe it will be way cheaper than ZA. I will be holding 50 copies there for shipping, so we can figure that out closer to the time, if you like.
The base commitment is all we need for now and we can confirm the shipping costs closer to the time for you to make the balance of the payment for the latter, should you be based overseas.
Please pop me a POP should you be keen to proceed.
Thank you for reaching out and supporting the dream.

If you are a fan of late ’80s Goth band, The Gathering, you’ll be thrilled and excited about the news of a hyper-limited-edition vinyl pressing of The Gathering’s only full-length album. Comprising no less than seven tracks, this exciting reveal, titled “In The End”, is a labour of love that’s taken the better part of 23 years to realise.
— Last.FM
With bespoke, beautiful artwork and design from Charl Kruger, the man responsible for all The Gathering’s creative since day one, to the exquisitely remastered tracks painstakingly produced by Paul Riekert of Battery 9 fame, and an Ashton Nyte mix of “Perfect Souls”, this album promises to fill the gaps left after the band went their separate ways back in the day. The band will be manufacturing 300 copies of the album and you can be part of this epic release by pre-ordering your copy – contact Jason Curtis via email – jason@matters.co.za, he will fill you in with all the information and send you the requisite banking details for payment. With each order received and paid, the band will immediately share the tracks with each purchase as MP3s, along with the artwork and sleeve notes. Spread the word to anyone you may know who would appreciate owning a slice of South African post-punk, goth-fuelled history.
