Sturmpercht/Schattenlieder/Percht/2010 CD Review


  Sturmpercht are a band that are one of the originators of Alpine Folk that has also had one of their previous albums reviewed in this zine and this is a review of their 2010 album "Schattenlieder" which was released by Percht.

Drums are mostly slow beats,while the accordions bring out the feel of the forests, as for the flutes they have a very medieval sounding feel to them.

Acoustic guitars are mostly slow to mid paced folk music guitar riffs, while the lyrics are mostly clean singing vocals with some whispers being used at times along with spoken word passages.

Lyrics are written in German and they are about heathen legends, strange fairies, and pagan rites, as for the production it has a very powerful sound to it that gives all of the musical instruments a good sound.

In my opinion this is another good album from   Sturmpercht and fans of this band as well as Neo_Folk wont be disappointed. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Stechapfeinacht" "Salamanderschnaps" "Der Tranekrug" and "Die Teufelsgeiger". RECOMMENDED BUY.
