Out June 2nd; Video For "Halte Fest" Shatred

- advertisement -

The one & only KARBHOLZ reveal the new video "Halte Fest". The track is the first single from the new studio album, Kapitel 10: Wilde Augen, set for international release June 2nd via Metalville Records.

Here comes the most metal song KARBHOLZ has ever produced: "Halte Fest". Intensive but also conciliatory, the song considers the thesis: Is there this one big, groundbreaking situation in our lives? Or is it not up to us after each step where our further journey leads? "What I would give for a moment with myself 20 years ago..." What would I say to myself?

The official video for KARBHOLZ's "Halte Fest" can be seen & heard on KNAC.COM HERE.

What? KARBHOLZ again? Wasn't it just Kapitel 11: Barrikaden and now again? Who got it wrong?

A well-calculated promotional campaign or a total mathematical failure? In the house of KARBHOLZ, the creative spark seems to have started a conflagration with the first lockdown. "Wait and see what time will bring, but don't waste it" was the credo, and so the band not only composed material for a long-player last year. No, songs for two full albums were created: all relevant, and none that could have been parted with.

The only way for KÄRBHOLZ: Double In, Double Out.

The songs that were written in one episode were split between the two albums before production started: Kapitel 10 and Kapitel 11. And it was exactly in this order that the final recordings took place together with producers Alexander Dietz and Eike Freese. Week after week, they lived and worked together. Kapitel 10: Wilde Augen was finished - half-time - and off to production.

It continued with Kapitel 11: Barrikaden and exactly the moment when everything should change...

During the final studio phase for what was actually the second album Kapitel 11: Barrikaden, this feeling spread... this feeling that everyone had, but no one dared: This second album is actually the perfect FIRST album. These are actually the songs with which one wants to and should step out of the silence, which simply imposed themselves for this.

Kapitel 10: Wilde Augen is more rudimentary and boisterous. It is the naughty brother with the torn trousers. But it is also the musical link between today and yesterday, perhaps most reminiscent of the 2009 album Rastlos.

But what to do? Kapitel 10: Wilde Augen was already produced. The vinyl was already on the table. And on it was written: KAPITELTEN! Irrefutable and irreversible. And even if no one here is considered a mathematical prodigy, 10 comes BEFORE 11.

But how was it a few years ago... "Always more heart than mind..."?

So what the hell! You know Kapitel 11? Then get to know Kapitel 10: Wilde Augen.

These eyes are hungry, want more and go round in circles... so in the end they don't care... that little bit of maths. Cover and tracklisting for Kaptitel: Wilde Augen are as follows:
