Urfaust is a curious band. "Ritualistic" or "fun" are words that come to mind when describing their music, and both whacky song titles and the gibberish IX sings are as supportive of these statements as the compositions themselves. The first thing that comes to mind for me however, is sadness.

Enter Einsiedler, a small release that seemingly didn't get a lot of attention. "Einsiedler" means "hermit" in German. Few other languages are as cold and distant as German can be - a perfect fit for the theme.

I don't know if this is better or the 2013 live release.

yeah, it's this one. Both of these tracks are so incredibly powerful. Especially IX: Der Einsiedler hits me so hard and has become one of my absolute favourite songs.

This is a really good album. Urfaust refined this style really well in their latter albums.
