KREUZWEG OST was a project headed by Silenius (SUMMONING, former VERBANNTEN KINDER EVAS, ex-ABIGOR) and Martin Schirenc (HOLLENTHON, MUDBREED, former PUNGENT STENCH). Musically, KREUZWEG OST associates itself withmodern avant-garde and rhythmic industrial, capturing the listener within its threatening sonic world.
Thematically, KREUZWEG OST's debut release documents Germany's rise and fall during the Second World War. Original samples taken from both Allied and German propaganda are worked into the rhythmic setting in order to create a disturbing, stomping, stormy atmosphere often taken to the point of ridicule. Rocket launchers and artillery sounds serve as the rhythmic machinery transforming the cacophony of war into a musical experience. KREUZWEG OST leaves no listener unmoved and is thus, a must for musical masochists, freaks, and doomsday prophets. |
