Dunkelwerk's Losttrooper returns on the battlefield for the new "Operation: Duesterland" album, Dunkelwerk's 3rd conceptual full-length album celebrating once more the complex theme of 'Total Defeat' and making of this collection of songs one of the strongest anti-war albums this scene ever offered.
If many bands have used war elements in their work, not many deal with this difficult theme wholeheartedly like Dunkelwerk can do it.By listening to "Operation: Duesterland" you can join a nation which was in a nosedive into the depths of hell. And please do not expect tales from dark fairylands! DUNKELWERK creates movie-like sceneries at best. World War II was a reality and this fact makes this new album very disturbing... It´s about defeat, not about victory! Defeats and ruins: Endzeit Electro with an attitude and deep emotions. This album is the result of intensive research work for rare original German war broadcast recordings making DUNKELWERK sound more authentic than ever before!
Note that the album also features rare original German war broadcast recordings next to propaganda samples and lyrics.
The album is available as a 11-track CD but also comes as a 3CD set, which is only available via the Alfa Matrix webstore. The limited deluxe carton box edition holds an exclusive bonus disc gathering some 10 unreleased old tracks from Dunkelwerk's archives between 1999 and 2004 plus the exclusive "Completorium vol.1" bonus disc.
Album releases on Feb. 22th by Alfa Matrix.
