DORNENREICH (Austria)
Intense - mystic - timeless
Founded in 1996, Dornenreich's trademarks for the past thirteen years have been uniquely intense music, expressive German lyrics and a charismatic stage presence. After gaining a reputation as an individualistic, avant-garde Black Metal act with their first two albums "Nicht um zu sterben" (1997) and "Bitter ist's, dem Tod zu dienen" (1999) that were released via CCP Records, Dornenreich published their third album "Her von welken Nächten" via Prophecy Productions in 2001.
Praised by the most important music magazines as a "milestone of Metal", this album gained the highest scores (Hammer 7/7; Legacy 15/15; Sonic Seducer 10/10) and climbed to the number one slot in the charts of Legacy magazine. It also lead Dornenreich to a 50 date tour across Europe, together with bands as diverse as Graveworm, Marduk, Darkwell, Vintersorg, Mayhem, Red Harvest, Tenhi, and Of The Wand And The Moon. In 2002, Dornenreich performed two celebrated concerts at the Wacken Open Air and the With Full Force festival.
In 2005, the band released their fourth album, "Hexenwind" (Orkus 9,5/10; Legacy 15/15). Described in an assortment of terms by the international press, ranging from 'Black Metal', 'Gothic Rock' and 'Dark Pop' to 'Industrial' and 'Neofolk', "Hexenwind" once again has proved Dornenreich's unique ability to transcend the borders of genres.
In 2006, Dornenreich released their fifth album "Durch den Traum" (Orkus 10/10; Hammer 6/7), and, after a hiatus of five years, they returned to the stage and played sold-out shows with a set-up for acoustic guitar, violin, percussion, and voice. In this live set-up, Dornenreich blended selections from their previous albums with tracks never heard before, resulting in an intense, powerful and intimate whole.
In 2007 Dornenreich were a celebrated double-concert act of the Wave Gotik Treffen, delivered a headliner show at the Summer Breeze festival, played numerous club shows in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and headlined a tour throughout Germany with the support bands Neun Welten and Elane.
In May 2008 the sixth studioalbum "In Luft geritzt" (Orkus 10/10; Hammer 6/7) - unique in its organic passion and intensity - was released. Based on acoustic sources (acoustic guitar, violin, percussion and voice) exclusively, Dornenreich invite to an incomparable dance of Eros and Thanatos. Dornenreich describe their new album as "Intense - Mystic - Timeless" and thus hint on what genre terms such as 'Acoustic Black Metal', 'Ambient Folk', 'Acoustic Avantgarde' and 'Extreme Classical Music' fail to get across: the feeling that no word can follow.
