Rated 4/5
Review by enfantterrible Jan 14, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)
Ok the martial days are gone and probably gone forever.
Thats good becouse the project (and the genre as well)was becoming a total kitsch and also becouse this is a pretty interesting album with an entire different perspective musically and lyrically speaking.
The influence from italian folk rock is absolutely evident and the mood of the album is certainly decadent. At times it sounds almost like cabaret rock music with undertones of pity melan-alcoholic feeling and a sense of tragedy and loss which brings to mind some sarcastic view on life and its meanings. All the trascendence was left behind. This is a new "trail of blood" in a newborn spring surface.
Certainly the band will dissapoint all the fans that followed Der Blutharsch just searching in them some typical militar background and confusing/paradoxical "ideology" and their obtuse conception of a monolithical and monothematic aproximation to industrial music.
A reinvention of Der Blutharsch? probably so, an entire different path in a different way with different faces. Even though this may not be called Der Blutharsch anymore.
The king is dead. long live the new king!
