EISKRISTALL - Ís (CD)
After sixteen years of band history, the band's first full-length album, Ís, with twelve tracks, will be released physically and digitally on February 28, 2022, via the Bühnenfall label. Six tracks by the Bochum-based duo EISKRISTALL are re-recordings of works that were previously released on a physical mini EP in 2011. The remaining tracks on the album were recorded in the studio for the first time.
The band was founded in 2006 by singer La Sonnambula and can look back on a long live history with changing lineups. Since January 2019, EISKRISTALL has been performing as a duo and is accompanied on tour by experienced live musicians. All songs were composed and recorded by La Sonnambula and musician Tim Tucker. The lyrics were written by La Sonnambula.
EISKRISTALL aims to express every form of coldness in society, the world, and beyond with their music. This can depict a person's inner self, describe a lonely icy desert, or reflect the steely cold skyline of a metropolis on a foggy winter morning. Musically, this is expressed in dynamic song structures with catchy melodies and lyrics, some of which also incorporate the supernatural, legends, and personal life experiences.
The image of an ice crystal was chosen as a symbol and, so to speak, as a “sign of recognition”, which also served as inspiration for the name.
