as we definitely can't wait to have our next full length out - which may take several moons - we just want to give you this sign of "hektische betriebsamkeit".

there are no vocals. and yes! our rehearsals are loud and you won't hear any nuances.

We are currently finishing the recording for our split release with the smelly but handsome dudes of Kodiak.

The release will be a cooperation between Burning World Records and Denovali Records. Look out for pre-order information within the next weeks.

Artwork is done by tommeck.

We'd like to point you at some good friends of us. Sven Mihlan aka Mourner and Mike Wiener aka Blackblood. Sven and Mike are truly two gems of the german doom/sludge scene who deserve, after years of passionate work, our highest respect!


Sven drives an eZine called Doom Metal Front including reviews, interviews and a wonderful concert photography section which is steadily growing.
