"Tuiflsrijtt" is Bavarian/Austrian for “devil's ride” and associates both the Krampus runs and the history behind the Krampus figure (myth, legend and tradition). The album functions as a bridge across the borders of this world to the devil's realm and the Rauhnächte, conjuring not only the dark Krampus figure who tortures the flesh with his rods and chains and carries off the doomed souls, but also the essence of the Drude, who torments her victims, Perchten, who take the souls away to the realm of the dead and the raging demons of the Wild Hunt.
"Tuiflsrijtt" is a consistent further development of the existing concept. Atmospheric Black Metal with an old school touch of the 2nd wave, which, however, has clearly increased in speed and aggressiveness compared to previous releases.
Tief im vergessenen Schattenreich des Waldes, dort, wo das Licht kaum den Boden berührt und nur der Wind die uralten Namen der Bäume kennt, wurde er geboren: der „WALDMENSCH“ – ein Becher, schlicht und doch durchdrungen vom Geist der Wildnis.
Wenn das Licht erlischt und die Welt in samtene Dunkelheit sinkt, erhebt sich der Renkforce Kassetten-Player – ein Artefakt vergangener Zeiten, geschaffen, um verlorene Klänge zu beschwören. In seinen Spulen ruht Erinnerung, gebannt auf magnetischem Band, wartend auf jene, die den Mut haben, sie zu erwecken. Kein leuchtendes Display lenkt dich, kein flüchtiger Strom verdirbt den Zauber – nur Klang, pur und uralt wie das Herz der Erde.
