Since their formation in 2007, MINENWERFER have pursued a proud 'n' pure vision of black metal idiosyncratically focused on World War I - idiosyncratic, in the sense that the band hail from America but mostly sing in German. What has resulted is a startlingly accomplished canon that has quietly built itself into prolific proportions, with their first album arriving in 2010, followed by albums in 2012 and 2019, and a slew of split releases and EPs in the interim.
That second album, Nihilistischen, took a moodier turn from MINENWERFER's throttling debut album, Volkslieder.

What results is a work equally steeped in the ugly underground and the yonder battlefields of professionalism.
