After "Erlkonige" (2008) and "Ostrakon" (2009), IN SCHERBEN
release their third album, "Dort an jenem Baume", which is their
first release on "Lichterklang". While the two preceding albums
were marked by the struggle for a distinctive identity, "Dort an
jenem Baume" is not just the result of their acquired musical
maturity, but, above all, an affectionate commitment to the
concept of "Heimat", which can be experienced in Maren's and
Lars's lyrics, but also in their musical interpretations of
poems by Eichendorff, Nikolaus Lenau and Gottfried Benn and was
inspired by their move from Leipzig to the Swiss Alpine
republic.
What elsewhere is often nothing but a common neofolk stereotype,
a romantically idealised understanding of the homeland and its
cultural and social origins, is transformed into a
groundbreaking declaration of love, dedicated to one's own
roots. Be it the Ruhr Valley, which is lyrically glorified in
"Horizonte" or "Sachsenland", IN SCHERBEN's musical versatility
and sparkling instrumentations are far from being restricted to
clichΘs of the genre, but open up new horizons of classically
inspired neofolk. Thus, they continue the tradition of strongly
influential artists of the genre, such as Forseti or Dies
Natalis, focussed on the essential and united in their
consciousness of the virtues of an honestly and deeply
experienced affinity with nature and cultural achievement.
