Thom Yorke has compared writing for In Extremo’s new album to that on ‘Feuertaufe’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. Feuertaufe is an amazing album, racked with beauty.’Feuertaufe’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. In Extremo “Feuertaufe” is an amazing album.
Some of the arrangements found on Feuertaufe are surprisingly edgy.
In Extremo offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Some call Der Gelbe Vogel from Feuertaufe as a quiet invitation of an artist to sit and listen. Voice of In Extremo in Die Magd Des Herrn is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Es is a very catchy tune. From the moment you listen to Hexenmeister you’re hooked. Ich Hab Gelebt… - This is a very lively song. I like Intro because it’s extremely catchy and has awesome drumming. First time I heard Jerusalem was on radio driving in my car and sonically it just sounded amazing.In Operie Femina it becomes nowhere more obvious that In Extremo has yet to define own style. Simple and heartfelt closing track Saufergrab closes Feuertaufe on a high note. Stern Von Bethlehem is the album’s biggest hit, I think.
