The East German masters of the morbid return with a vengeance &
deliver their most mature album with their new and 6th album „Blutbahnen“. After
the immense succes of the previous studio album “Wundwasser” (# 79 in German
album charts) and the mini album “Hexenhaus” (# 100 in German album charts) and
another chart entry at # 99 with their side project EISBLUT the huge crowd of
fans desperatelly waits for the new opus: the wait is over, BLUTBAHNEN will
drive every EISREGEN-maniac insane!
After the departure of their long-time violinist 2T (the violin parts on
BLUTBAHNEN were done by a session musician) the band is down to a quartet now.
The creative minds in the band have recorded an album in Dez. 2006 / Jan. 2007
in the "Klangschmiede E" studio with technician Markus Stock which fulfills
highest expectations easily: BLUTBAHNEN is musically variable, lyrically as
brutal as expected and controverse topped in a heavy sound which opens all
facettes of their sound.
EISREGEN have done an album without fillers – songs like the intensive opener
„Eisenkreuzkrieger", the lyrically intensive "17 Kerzen am Dom", the
balladesc
title track or the follow-up to the title track of their 2nd album “Zrck in die
Kolonie” to the totally undescribeable "Schneuz den Kasper!" show how much
EISREGEN developed both in compostitory and musically fields.
BLUTBAHNEN is their masterpiece so far – and as we know the guys from EISREGEN
they already set their focus ahead: the works on the following album KNOCHENKULT
have started…
