He brought us the "Apokalypse" and destroyed everything in order to build his own empire upon the world's wreckage. The empire in which 'Der Herr der Krähen' sacrifices himself unto the "Träume einer Nacht". But whoever thought that calm would return after the last battle, or who believes that the dreams of the SCHWARZER ENGEL comprise delightful pictures and contemplative sounds... is mistaken, luckily.
Crows sit on the beam of the gibbet. The sky is black. Spirits, demons, demi-gods and the living dead wander through the darkness and meet for a crazy round-dance. With their latest work, SCHWARZER ENGEL raise the tempo quite considerably. Grandiose, emotive, epic, aggressive and totally berserk. These are the dreams which up until now were celebrated by bands such as RAMMSTEIN, EISBRECHER, SAMSAS TRAUM and ASP. Brutal metal riffs, drums like machine-gun fire, bombastic orchestral arrangements and striking vocals with intelligent German lyrics. An album of epic proportions. An album full of power, fury, devastation and dark beauty. Full of breathtaking melodies and brimming with passion. The dreams of the legions of the 'Herr der Krähen' are nightmares. Menacingly beautiful, mesmerisingly terrifying, alarming and sinister.
Creatures of the night who rise above the battlefields of the fallout and stage their wild round-dance. The 'Käferkönig' himself, Alexander Kaschte of SAMSAS TRAUM personally does the honours and along with SCHWARZER ENGEL creates the brilliant next big club hit, "Fieber im Blut".
Welcome, you children of the night. Welcome to the dance on the ashes of the scorched earth. The 'Herr der Krähen' welcomes you to his kingdom. Dream with him. Dance with him! Even if it is only for one night, this night will change your lives!
This first edition of the CD comes in an opulent digipak, with a special booklet containing all the lyrics plus lavish illustrations. Strictly limited to 1999 copies worldwide.
