A sinful new covers album by FEUERSCHWANZ! They return from the darkness with an illuminating video forÂ âBlinding Lightsâ! Following the success of their previous #1 charting album, ‘MementoÂ Mori’, the hottest German band in folk rock to date are back to flabbergast their fans with the spectacular covers album, ‘TodsÃ¼nden’, to be released December 30, 2022 â exactly one year after the release of ‘Memento Mori’Â â viaÂ Napalm Records. The album consists of two completely new songs, as well as the cover bonus tracks from their last two studio albums. With their newest offering, they present an official music video for âBlinding Lightsâ â one of the biggest pop songs of the current decade byÂ The Weeknd. Effortlessly combining their own style with the hot 80s revival sound of the 2020s, the song and video compare to a mischievous club night at the tavern. Pushing beyond all limitations,Â FERUSCHWANZÂ do not shy away from exploring the unexplored and humorously invite the listener into their world of pure medieval rock! Hodi states: âA song from 2020, but with REALLY heavy 80s vibes. And all that, although I was born in 1990!Â This is really great songwriting that we have brought into the medieval and metal world. Bon Jovi with bagpipes. I always think of a vampire singing about the sun when I hear this song.Â âI can’t sleep until i feel your touch.ââ Genre exploration and loads of fun aside, amidst it all,Â FEUERSCHWANZÂ clearly showcase their musical skills and development, convincing with ultra-elaborate sound. In particular, vocalists Hauptmann and Hodi flex their deft skillset, from skyscraper 80s-style falsettos to deep growling and even rapping (as evident on their cover ofÂ DeichkindâsÂ âLimitâ). So, jump on board this thrilling musical ride and witnessÂ FEUERSCHWANZÂ conquering a kaleidoscope of musical styles with ease! Proving their versatility with every single song on this album,Â FEURSCHWANZÂ overcome linguistic, musical and genre-specific limitations and unite the tavern in a sonic feast. Effortlessly combining different genres, the medieval folk-rockÂ geniuses reinterpret everything from pop to punk rock to metal hits without ever losing their own characteristic sound. From beloved evergreens like âGimme! Gimme! Gimme!âÂ to chart toppers like their latest release âBlinding Lightsâ, everyone will find their favorite. With humble support from icons likeÂ Melissa BonnyÂ (Ad Infinitum),Â SaltatioÂ Mortis, andÂ Angus McSix, ‘TodsÃ¼nden’Â is a musical spectacle beyond compare. This exciting ride starts off with a cover of Swedish pop legendsÂ ABBA. FEUERSCHWANZÂ give their world-famousÂ song âGimme! Gimme! Gimme!â a folk-rockÂ vibe with a gloomy but still uplifting atmosphere bursting into heavy riffing and drumming. Another pop-tinged rock song of legend is covered withÂ Europeâs âThe Final Countdownâ, but the album also features current highlights like âBlinding Lights”, Ed Sheeranâs âI See Fireâ and âDingâ byÂ SeedÂ featuringÂ Ad InfinitumâsÂ Melissa Bonny. Punk rock tracks like âThe Bad Touchâ by the gloriousÂ Bloodhound GangÂ or tracks by German bands like âHier kommt Alexâ byÂ Die Toten HosenÂ or âDer Grafâ byÂ Die ÃrzteÂ â a track thatÂ FEUERSCHWANZÂ honor with their very own trademark by telling ancient tales in their own fabulous way. Similar treatment is given to âEngelâ by German legendsÂ Rammstein, asÂ FEUERSCHWANZÂ pick up the story and dress it in their own folkloristic gloomy sound, while in its new version, former European summer hit âDragoesta Din Teiâ throws the listener directly into a wild Viking party, releasing medieval power that will have them out of their seat in no time. In honor of the metal scene, FEUERSCHWANZÂ present their very own version ofÂ Amon Amarthâs âTwilight of the Thunder Godâ but give it a new spin by turning it into a medieval hymn with 80s rock vibes. Other famous tracks include covers ofÂ Ghostâs âSquare Hammerâ, a turn atÂ Powerwolfâs âAmen and AttackâÂ pumped with chanting violins,Â Sabatonâs âGott Mit Unsâ, and the all-time classic âWarriors of the Worldâ by the one and onlyÂ Manowar, which they present together with honorable guestsÂ Angus McSix,Â Saltatio MortisÂ andÂ Melissa Bonny.
