About the songs :

1) Aufbruch: It is a nice made Intro with the sounds of the see.

2) Alarich: it is a Poem about the Goth King Alarich. This Poem was made by August Graf von Platen in the 19th century. He called it "Das Grab am Busento"

3) Weltenanfang: It is about the beginning of the World. About Ginnungagap and Ymir. About Buri and the Struggles they have.

4) Wetz die Krallen: This song is for the beast within yourself. Release it to achieve freedom and unknown power.

5) Maschienenmonster: Deus ex machina? No! There is no solution in beeing a "high tech" society. The song is about anarchy. Destroy the human world and their inadmissible behaviour. For the victory of nature.

6) Reise: Inspired by the "Dark Tower" of Stephen King. I love this books!

7) Heimkehr: What happens if you are going home after a long journey and you find your town burned down? Your family dead? 

8) Rache: "Revenge" Yes. you are going berserk. You seek vengeance. That is the sequel of "Heimkehr".

9) Wir rufen deine Wölfe: Also a poem. By Friedrich Hilscher. Also around the 19th century. He wantet to combine the north germanic mythology with the "ona and only" god.

10) Abstieg: The last song on the Album. I think the lyric are a little bit like a dream. You find yourself surrounded by green ugly goblins. You don´t know what to do. Thor appears and is helping you. He smashes the enemies with mighty thunderstrikes and dsapears again.

A special thanks to Robert Schroll for these explanations.
