Strafgericht - Zehn Letzte Todsunden on CD

Adversus, the notorious dark band with intellectual pretensions from the Rhine-Main region, had been quiet for a long time. With their mixture of poetry, cinematic bombast, electro, dark metal, neoclassical music and new German death art, which is difficult - if not impossible - to categorize, the project achieved cult status in the 2000s, but then it became very quiet around the band. For over a decade, there were rumors of a last great album, while mastermind Torsten Schneyer created a new music project with DTORN. And now, after a change of record label, the time has finally come: - "STRAFGERICHT - zehn letzte Todsünden", is the long-awaited opus magnum from Adversus and combines everything that fans have been longing for: A familiar mad mixture of dark metal, orchestral grandeur and electronic gimmickry provides the musical stage for wide-ranging melodic arcs, wistful folk tunes and a whole lot of lyricism. For the last time, the classical vocals of two Sophran nightingales alternate with the Klaus Kinski-like tantrums and shouts of Rosendorn. The instrumental line-up of electric guitar, drums, piano, violin and double bass has remained the same and is supplemented this time by a guest accordion. - Is this black metal? Neofolk? Darkwave? A musical? Nobody knows; and it doesn't matter, because it's ADVERSUS. Strafgericht is a concept album and transports with the music and the lyrics
