Neun Welten - The Sea Im Diving In '2017

Tracks list

The Sea Im Diving In is the third full-length release of German dark folk
collective Neun Welten and the bands first album of new material since 2009s
Destrunken. It shows Neun Welten take an adventurous musical shift, adding
captivating vocals to most songs while incorporating post-rock electric guitars
to its base of rich instrumentation. 

German for Nine Worlds, Neun Welten charms listeners with cinematic storytelling
that blends elements of neofolk and post-rock with a film score focus. The
first-ever Neun Welten record to include English lyrics -- some adapted from the
writings of Edgar Allen Poe -- The Sea Im Diving In boasts an unshakable charm
that grows stronger as the album plays out. As its title implies, the record
features a water-centric theme that sees the element as, at once, a symbol of
romanticism and tranquility, disaster and destruction. These thoughts are
channeled through songs driven by the groups tranquil singing and lyrical odes
to feelings of melancholy, mysticism, love, death and longing and reflective,
emotional sound. 

Through their violin player Aline Deinert, who is also a (live) member of bands
such as Empyrium, Haggard and the chamber pop ensemble Die Kammer, Neun Welten
secured the services of renowned German film composer (and Die Kammer member)
Matthias Raue (Löwenzahn theme, several Tatort scores) who recorded The Sea
Im Diving In and who is responsible for the albums rich, warm sound. The Sea Im
Diving In also features the talents of Niko Knappe, singer of Neun Welten
labelmates Dark Suns, who plays all drums on the album, co-arranged a number of
songs and wrote additional lyrics. 

Whether dark and driving or pastoral, powerful or mystical, Neun Welten
effortlessly takes the listeners to their own magic world and the journey begins
anew with the release of The Sea Im Diving In.
