Kohlrabenschwarz: Where pain meets poetry and darkness finds its voice.
Step into the abyss with "Kohlrabenschwarz," the brainchild of former Lunar Aurora member, Constantin König. Following his time with the experimental rock band "Bald Anders," a transition towards straight black metal ensued for him. In 2019, these ideas found their form, evolving into haunting melodies and searing lyrics. After some first pre-recordings in 2022, König sought out fellow musicians, birthing the debut album, "Im finstren Tal," recorded between April and June 2023 at Studio Five Lakes by Thomas Taube.
But Kohlrabenschwarz is more than music - it's a journey into the recesses of the mind. With raw honesty, König confronts the pain, devastation, and fear that lurk within us all. "Im finstren Tal" serves as a visceral portrayal of mental anguish, urging listeners to confront their demons head-on.
Collaborating with metal virtuosos like Dirk Rehfus (Grabnebelfürsten) on Vocals, C.A. (Odem Arcarum, White Mantis), Enrico Enrico Pertoso (White Mantis), and Bernhard Tomm (Bald Anders), König crafts a sonic landscape that's as chilling as it is cathartic. From guttural screams to sleazy guitar riffs, each element adds depth to Kohlrabenschwarz's haunting sound.
The album's concept delves into the darkness within, drawing inspiration from poets and philosophers of old. Tracks like "Der Weg nach unten" and "Der letzte Schrei" explore themes of descent and despair, while "Am Ende der Nacht" offers a glimmer of hope in the darkest hour.
Prepare to descend into the depths of Kohlrabenschwarz a journey where darkness reigns, but redemption may yet be found.
