Kadavar to Release Berlin in August

Some awaited news from German trio Kadavar today in that their third album, titled Berlin, will be released by Nuclear Blast this August. The dead heat of summer seems a fitting time for a new Kadavar record to show up, and after the overwhelming responses both their albums to date — 2012’s self-titled debut (discussed here) and 2013’s Abra Kadavar (review here) — received, it’s only fair to say Berlin will be one of the season’s most anticipated full-lengths. It’s available to preorder now for those inclined toward such precautions, but something tells me they’re going to make plenty of these to go around.

Album art, details, and tour dates with The Shrine and Horisont were all just announced, if you please:

*** NEW ALBUM + TOURDATES w/ The Shrine + Horisont ***

KADAVAR – announce new album and headlining tour for winter 2015!

After spending the last 4 months in the studio, working on it non-stop, Berlin, Germany-based classic rock overlords KADAVAR have finalized the production process of their brand new album. The third KADAVAR album will be entitled »Berlin« and is slated for an August 21, 2015 release.

Commented drummer Tiger: „About ten years ago, when we – independently of one another – moved to Berlin, we just wanted to break free from home and do something new. I thought it was comfortable, to blend in and just live from day to day. A lot of very long nights and so many completely different people at one place. Where there are opposites you can always ground yourself. We’re all different, come from different places but have managed to create something together we all like. I think the Belrin lifestyle has influenced our band very much and therefore fits perfectly as the album’s title.“

Furthermore the band has announced to tour Europe this winter. Find the dates below.

audiObelisk & Giveaway: Kadavar Stream Opener From Self-Titled Debut; Enter Now to Win the CD or Vinyl!

Posted in audiObelisk on July 9th, 2012 by JJ Koczan

In honor of the album’s release tomorrow, July 10, on Tee Pee Records, I’ve been allowed to host a giveaway of 5 CD and 3 LP copies of the self-titled debut from German classic doomers Kadavar. Enter now by leaving a comment to this post. Please make sure your email address is filled in on the comment form, so I can contact you for your address if your name is selected. Winners will be picked one week from today. Good luck and thanks to all who enter.

[Please note: This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all who entered. Winners will be notified by email.]

To make the deal even sweeter (though, frankly, it didn’t really need sweetening), you can stream the opening track “All Our Thoughts” on the player below. Like the rest of Kadavar‘s Kadavar, the leadoff cut is a gorgeous exercise in analog tonality, rife with classic grooving and vinyl-ready mystique. Wolf Lindemann‘s guitars creep through with such buzzsaw fuzz they make any speaker that plays them sound like it’s covered in fabric, and the bluesy pulse in the bass and Tiger‘s drums hints at the time before heavy rock turned prog, right there in ’71-’72, before everyone realized what geniuses they were.

Obviously fans of vintage heavy and its modern incarnation will want to take note, but there’s something malevolent that the album hints at as well, and one of the aspects that makes Kadavar such an exciting listen is that you don’t necessarily know where the band is going to head from here. If, like Witchcraft, they want to move past these doomly beginnings and stretch out into extended indulgences of progressive classicism, they’re set up for that, but also, if they want to go darker into folk-hued cultishness, there would be precedent for that as well. In any case, bass heads will revel in Mammut‘s Rivoli, and the memorable chorus of “All Our Thoughts” is a great entry point for anyone who hasn’t heard Kadavar yet.

As always, I hope you enjoy:

Here is the Music Player. You need to installl flash player to show this cool thing!

Kadavar‘s Kadavar will be released in North America tomorrow, July 10, on Tee Pee Records and will be out on This Charming Man Records in Europe. Winners for the CD and vinyl will be chosen at random from the comments left on this post and prizes will be mailed out from the label. For more on Kadavar, check them out on Thee Facebooks or hit up Tee Pee‘s website. Special thanks to the label and to Action PR for coordinating this giveaway and stream.
