Extremely limited set including the 'Berlin' re-release and a beautiful t-shirt. Infos regarding the 'Berlin' MCD: This surprising new star on the apocalyptic-folk-scene sprouts from the punk and sing-songwriter genres, and has now combined these attitudes with a sombre and experimental martial-folk with a strong personal imprint. Rome is about emotive songs that are both catchy and disturbed. These songs awake memories of love and death, with the reoccurring themes of despair and loss, guilt and grief, might and war. With the cynical opening line ,,Once we learned to speak we learned to fail", the band sets a grand colour to this exquisite candy piece of 6 exclusive songs.

"Berlin" comes in a very appealing digipak. The first edition of this debut mini-album has long been sold-out since its release in 2006. Trisol is both honoured and proud to finally make this release available again to you. Due to Jerome's constant changes of address during the CMI-years some original artwork files have been lost to time. However, the artwork has been restored or partially re-invented and even enhanced with a booklet containing all lyrics and additional photographs. Infos regarding the shirt: It's the first time ever that Trisol gives the opportunity to order a band t-shirt without having to buy the actual release as well. The reason for this is simple: Rome's "Berlin"-MCD is a re-release and Trisol doesn't want to push you to buy it all in a set when all you might want is the t-shirt. Compared to all earlier t-shirts the Berlin-shirt is indeed more expensive, because Trisol has decided that they should insist on offering you a high quality product. They chose the best there is on the market. This t-shirt is not your average black t-shirt, but a dark brown t-shirt with light brown print. Trisol believes this rather nostalgic look fits Rome's debut MCD perfectly. To top it off, the Rome-logo is made in an elaborate 3D-print. The front side is printed with Rome (3D-print) and the slogan "DIES IST KEINE RICHTUNG - NUR REINE BEWEGUNG" (this is no direction - just pure movement). On the back side you will finde the slogan "BEWEGUNG ENTSTEHT DURCH HALTUNG" (the source of movement is composure).
