Austria's Rauhnåcht has set 25 August as the release date for its fifth album, Zwischenwelten, which will see the light of day through Antiq. The first video single, "Das Mark des Lebens", is already out.
Rauhnåcht is a one-man project created in 2009, initially based on the Alpine folk music of Sturmpercht. Blending ur-folk style with aggressive black metal, and meditative ambience and dreamscapes, the band bids a mix of grand power and discrete, subtle whispers.
Rauhnåcht is discreet on the internet, as the main member is rather a mountain walker and a hermit. Living his art as an approach to his lifestyle is part of the project. After a seminal concert at the A Hoagascht event with Gràb and Lunar Aurora, the band is now back with a new album to affirm the style.
Zwischenwelten is an album way darker than the last Rauhnåcht metal album, Unterm Gipfelthron. With wind-fast blasts, the atmosphere sets the basic theme of the album: the confrontation of parallel realities. Suitably, the title of the album translated to English means "the worlds between the worlds". The cover created by Joanna Maeyens speaks well for this gap between the worlds. Modernity and ancient times, material world and spirituality, timeline of speed and eternity of slow growth - each gap between the worlds is a world in itself. Link
