Like a Corpse standing in Desperation is the title of a career-spanning rarities box set by darkwave band Sopor Aeternus & the Ensemble of Shadows that was released in 2005. The recordings span fifteen years of "original demos, rarities & documented failures." Re-issued for the first time are the out-of-print EP Ehjeh Ascher Ehjeh and remix album "Voyager - The Jugglers of Jusa", along with the never before heard demo tape Es reiten die Toten so schnell... and the extensively bootlegged "Flowers in Formaldehyde".
