Tanzwut

The creation of a legend – the medieval pioneers of “Tanzwut” It came at a dark time in Germany when the plague wiped out entire regions. To escape this misery, people danced ecstatically until they collapsed from exhaustion or died. At the time this condition was called “Tanzwut“ (dance rage). Nowadays this term stands for the most versatile and imaginative music group in the medieval scene. No other band has so far managed to combine modernity and history as well as frontman Teufel and his men. Now Tanzwut announced the tenth studio-album of their career with a meaningful name: "Die Tanzwut kehrt zurück“ (Tanzwut returns) The name says it all! Already the opener and title track lashes like an unstoppable storm and then breaks down on the listener with full musical fury. The song tells of the black death, also known as the plague, going around. So what's the point of accumulating material goods? Better enjoy the moment and live your life as if there was no tomorrow. A special highlight certainly is the song “Pack schlägt sich” feat. Saltatio Mortis. A true hymn to life, friendship and solidarity, which will quickly become THE new fan-favorite in concerts. With their new album Tanzwut convince through musical diversity and texts that touch, tell stories and critically illuminate current affairs. Thus they make sure without a doubt that they belong to the top of medieval rock acts. The final word that remains is Teufel's creed: “Let's go crazy! We’re having Tanzwut."
