More Info

"Originally released in 1992, Der Abend Der Schwarzen Folklore is the third Massaker album, released by Rough Trade Germany. According to Caspar Brtzmann, the title track and Bass Totem are the bands most accomplished songs. Its certainly the most sonicly refined of their albums, recorded during a residency over several weeks at the pastoral site of Conny Planks studio near Cologne, and produced by Ingo Krauss and Bruno Gebhard, who had worked with the famed Krautrock producer until his death in 1987.
Not least, Schwarze Folklore also features their new drummer Danny Lommen, whom Caspar and bassist Eduardo Delgado had headhunted at a concert with Lommens Dutch prog-core band Gore. Lommen shared their tastes in sheer volume and presence, and has a completely unique sound to his drumming, as Caspar marvels, he plays ultrahard and clear, with authority and no compromise, nothing, not even the most turbulent and speedy beats, sound fuzzy a statement. This, he adds with a smile, would sometimes lead to intense moods during rehearsals, when he overpowered no small feat competing with the sounds of Caspars guitar."
