Album Review

SCHATTENSCHLAG was talked about for the first time in 2002. In this year they played live at the Zillo Open Air Festival. The origin of the band can be found in Joachim's "illness". Flashback was then seen as a review of the musical past of Joachim, but also brought to light already there hint how to proceed with the project. 2006 was the most successful year for SCHATTENSCHLAG. At the legendary Wave Gothic Treffen in Leipzig, they were headliners in the Moritzbastei and became celebrated musicians. Similar things happened at the Summer Darkness festival in Utrecht, Netherlands.

SCHATTENSCHLAG presents dark electro without being considered as a plagiarism of other bands. Aggressive and very nearly psychotic, musical traits form a perfect symbiosis of text and artwork, to call a distorted mirror image of human and social structures out. This is why so many people love them, and they will be pleasured when this record comes along their ears. Musically it is a great change that had already been announced to ‘Flash Back’. Away from pure industrial to a healthy mix of dark electro with Industrial influences. SCHATTENSCHLAG is the missing link between merciless and provocative EBM and hammering power of Techno / Goa.
