Abandon all hope, SCHÄDLICH & SÖHNE‘s music is not for everyone, and certainly no light entertainment. This is for listeners who are capable of thought, have a healthy sense of dark humor and find pleasure in tragedy.

It is an art to aptly describe one’s own lyrical outpourings without quickly sounding pathetic or even

ridiculous. There is certainly a similarity to Ewigheim here, but SCHÄDLICH & SÖHNE are much more direct and at the same time much more abstract. Or to put it a little more vaguely: total cynical negativity + the whole bitter truth = ZWECKPESSIMISMUS [Eng.: calculated pessimism (for people who can endure it)].

For the musical realization of their upcoming album  “Zweckpessimismus”, Yantit and Guido were joined by Markus Stock both on bass and as a producer. He was also responsible for the album mix and master. Kevin Olasz contributed some additional lead and solo guitars to selected songs on the album.
