Dornenreich - Du wilde Liebe sei (Book Edition) - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Released in 1971, Fuzzy Duck is a cult classic of British progressive rock, blending hard-edged riffs with swirling organ textures and psychedelic flair. The album showcases the raw energy and musical dexterity of a short-lived but formidable London-based quartet. Featuring Mick Hawksworth on bass and vocals, Roy Sharland on Hammond organ, Paul Francis on drums, and Garth Watt-Roy on guitar and vocals, the band delivers a sound that's both muscular and melodic. Their only studio album is a showcase of tight arrangements, extended instrumental passages, and a gritty, underground aesthetic. With roots in bands like Andromeda, Killing Floor, and The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, the members brought seasoned experience and a fearless approach to experimentation. Fuzzy Duck captures the spirit of early '70s rock with a progressive edge, appealing to fans of Deep Purple, Atomic Rooster, and Uriah Heep. The production is unpolished in the best way-raw, immediate, and full of character. Ideal for collectors of obscure prog and heavy psych, this LP remains a prized gem in vinyl circles.

Dornenreich offer a veritable cornucopia of wonderful surprises on their ninth full-length InchDu wilde Liebe seiInch. The Tyrolean trio has used the more than seven years that have passed since the of their latest masterpiece InchFreiheitInch (2014) well to create a new dimension of sound. Although InchDu wilde Liebe seiInch remains faithful within the Austrians' musical canon of combining heightened emotional dynamics with expressive momentum, Dornenreich evolved their trademark sound further into a new dimension a pulsating earth-rooted web build from percussion, bass, and electric guitars enables their unique vocals, acoustic guitars, and violins to grow wings and freely soar skywards. As the translation of the album title InchYou Wild Love BeInch implies, this record revolves around the mystery of InchloveInch and many of the powerful effects, painful misunderstandings, and complex entanglements that are forever associated with this human idea. Originally audibly inspired by melodic black metal (on their debut album InchNicht um zu sterbenInch, 1997), Dornenreich developed a far wider musical horizon on the following seven albums with the progressing inclusion of acoustic instruments and elements derived from folklore and classical music as major contributing factors. Now, InchDu wilde Liebe seiInch marks the next major step in the band's never predictable evolution to a unique style, which they have dubbed Inchblack arcane rockInch. With InchDu wilde Liebe seiInch, Dornenreich enter a new sonic dimension that shines brighter than ever before and witnesses the Austrians climbing onto their highest artistic peak yet - time to get packed and to join their wondrous journey on the trail of love!
