An unearthed Lingua Fungi ep Azure Beyond from 2011 was released by Aural Hypnox.
'Azure Beyond' offers a glimpse into a more tranquil and minimalistic facet of Lingua Fungi. Two-piece composition performed with zither, harmonium and bells, 'Azure Beyond' is a slowly evolving and organic drone painting of the mind and matter diminishing in to a single point in an azure infinity - a gravitational collapse in an ever-expanding vastness.
The cassette is housed inside oversized, silk-screen printed cardboard covers including five insert cards and a pack of incense (15g) created especially for this release by Mount Hypnox. Limited to 133 copies.

Long delayed Lingua Fungi album Melankhton was released by Aural Hypnox.
Melankhton is a sonic interpretation of particular illness narratives and a study in experimental anthropology based on fieldwork material gathered especially for this project. The narratives and sounds expressing them reflect the shifting states of the turbulent minds visited by Melankhton. The album was recorded in 2006 using exclusively acoustic instruments and sound sources mixed with processed field recordings. The album consists of five long tracks with sounds varying from maniacal percussive rhythms to dreamy drone passages. The album is enclosed in a customised and silk-screen printed Sublunar series cardboard covers, including a 4-panel cardboard booklet and a silk-screen printed insert card. The regular edition is limited to 449 copies.

Irish tape label Fort Evil Fruit released a long delayed Lingua Fungi album Vigil For The Snail Lovers.
Vigil for the Snail Lovers was recorded in 2009 and is arguably Padatsu's bleakest work to date, suggesting solitary, troubled wanderings in dark forests and on stony shores, though some kind of resolution seems to be arrived at towards the end. It's an hypnotic and immersive listen with an organic, nocturnal vibe. The mood is beautifully echoed in the cover painting by Elaine Ní Cuana, aka Sgraffito.
Numbered edition of 100. Includes download code.

A collaboration album Otter Songs between Alio Die and Lingua Fungi was released by Hic Sunt Leones.
From Terra Ultima to Mediterranean, the album brings together the tones of nocturnal cicadae and spring break-up of ice in Bothnian Bay. Sometimes driven with arctic atavism, sometimes with delicate warm melodies, Otter Songs aims to transcend physical distance by deconstructing and rebuilding the two worlds into boundless celebration of Terra Mater.
