Originally released March 24th, 1998 on Hieroglyphics Imperium Records, "3rd Eye Vision" marked the return of the Hieroglyphics crew in true independent form; seemingly unshaken after leaving the confines of their not-so-rosey Major Label pens. Distributed by Ground Level Distribution, 3EV did moderately well in itching itself into stores across the country. Amongst delays and backorders, fans were able to receive a copy with a little bit of searching and patience.

March 6th, 2001--almost 3 full years since its debut--"3rd Eye Vision" will be re-released into stores nationwide on a much, much larger scale. Picking up distribution duties will be RED; a company responsible for the distribution of LOUD Records' stock, as well as past Hiero Imperium Releases, "Both Sides of the Brain" and "Trilogy".

Saddening, yes, that no extra tracks will be added to the re-release, fans who may not have heard the Hiero Family Album will finally have a chance to pick up a copy. And for what is shaping up to be a Hiero year to remember with a confirmed 3 releases on the way, new fans will now have a chance to dig a little deeper into the crew's past.
