Volume story MENHIR
Before now almost 7 years, in February 1995 the story took its course. What sounds in the first moment as well as the beginning of an eternally lasting story, was for us the start of a time very moved and unforgettable in each regard. In the purported winter month, my littles met quickly and Manuela on a concert. After a short, but direct conversation with quickly, one was united and it as a percussion engaged himself. Quickly a suitable sample room was found and we went to bring the "accumulated" raw material in "form" at the work. Substantially more difficult the Komplettierung turned out the volume until we found finally a bass and a guitarist, who were useful in the end effect unfortunately only in addition, to bring our debut concert in the truest sense of the word over the stage and the demo mitzufinanzieren. in March 1996 was it then finite so far to immortalize the four completed pieces on the BARDITUS - demo. In substance they reflected our dear to the homeland, our heathen life attitude, the pride on our past and our origin again. This should be also the clue and the Triebfeder unsers of future creating. To third we followed unperturbed our way and sent the demo at Labels and pertinent magazines. The reviews of the periodicals fell out throughout unexpectedly positively. Naturally one hopes as unknown volumes for good criticisms, up to few, that articulated itself also only on the lack of understanding regarding the texts and remarkable manner vis--vis the German linguistic usage, we were very proud of our first publication. We signed in October 1996 the contract in ARS METALLI, a Label out of Franfurt/or. Meanwhile we had worked in also again a new bass (our Heinz), who would support us already in a support-Gig of the PAGAN THRIUMP TOUR.
To the new year 1996/97, we proceeded ourselves into the Buckower BLUE TYPE studio around with the help of Andreas Hilpert (u. a. Golem) to produce that THE ETERNAL STONES after that left us Heinz for personal reason. We got already a month before studio start again strengthening at the second guitar (novel of the Rmling). At the receptions, the new volume member had however yet no cooperation. In the subsequent time, numerous entrances that brought in us a notable fame followed. On the basis whose we received 1997 a three-day minus tour within Germany in November. With of the party the Sweden were developed from seven castles and FORBIDDEN SITE France in the spring 1998 a volume internal "Sideprojekt" with the minuses - CD BUCHONIA that represented an excursion into folkloric Gefilde. The little Silberling became in the solo effort of quick and, under aid of a guest singer and a violinist realized me. Thematic we had references to legends and Brauchtumberlieferungen out of our direct environment.
In the mean time we had searched engaged to be sure unsuccessfully for a firm Drummer, but for the receptions the friendly TORMENTOR of DISASTER. The work at the THURINGIA - album successfully could be locked.
With Sebastian, a percussion new and the Debtgig with it was found stood shortly on that into the house when 2 weeks previously our guitarist (novel) and late bass Carsten left the volumes. What so hopelessly looked, took an unexpected turning point. We asked quickly whether it can assist - since then is the Urgestein of MENHIR again complete. (Quickly changed solely the instrument - of the percussion at the six strings) for some months also the place of the bass newly is occupied (Fritze out of the turning point country). Also regarding the Labels, there was recently a necessary variation that impossibly made us the further collaboration with our long-time record company ARS METALLI. Briefly our fourth work which carries the name ZIUWARI will appear, in SKALDIC TYPE.
