Presented in a Deluxe A5-sized 'booklet' format. The project behind the new work by Autunna et sa Rose seems quite different and more varied than the previous ones, pursuing the idea of a conceptual album through different schemes and strategies. This is a collection of tracks by artists of a recent past, most of them related to the wave / gothic / industrial genre. Even if already brought to success in the past, they have been now skilfully revised and somehow adjusted : "L'Art et la Mort" includes re-interpretations of tracks by Virgin Prunes ( "Decline And Fall" ), Tuxedomoon ( "Egypt" ), Ataraxia ( "Canzona" ), Coil ( "Ostia-the Death of Pasolini" ), Dead Can Dance ( "Anywhere Out Of The World" ), Laibach ( "Leben-Tod" ), Einstürzende Neubauten ( "Der Tod ist ein Dandy" ) and Bauhaus ( "Antonin Artaud" )". These are not 'cover-versions' as such though, but completely new tracks, inspired by the aforementioned artists and by some famous writers and poets of the past.
