Üebermutter’s debut album Unheil! in stores soon

Uebermutter - Unheil

Üebermutter’s first album Unheil! will see the sunlight in just a couple of days on April 4th. Üebermutter is a metal project led by the multi-talented actress, writer, radio presenter and of course musician Luci van Org. The band’s tough and massive style has a certain gothic, very German feel to it, I guess someone might say this is what Rammstein could sound like if most of them happened to be of the fairer sex.

Listen and Watch
There’s four rather generous samples of the songs on the album on Üebermutter’s Myspace site, and below you can also find a video for their song Heim und Herd.

Where to find Unheil
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find Unheil! at any other retailer than EMP.de, which I believe doesn’t ship to the States.

Tracklisting for Üebermutter - Unheil!:
01. Mädchen (TeilZwo)
02. Mutterherz
03. Heim und Herd

    Why are they using both an umlaut and the following “e” in their band name? Do these ladies know how to speak/write in German?

    I think the music sounds kinda pop-metal, and this femme-bitch theme they have going on isn’t very flattering, either… Not sure I like this band.

    Oh, I also just found out that AlphaMusic.de has this album for 1 Euro less than EMP.de, sorry. ;)

    What’s in a name? Why does Motörhead have an umlaut in their name? ;)

    Yeah, I’m not an expert in putting bands into genres. In fact, I’d avoid it altogether if it wasn’t useful in giving people some sort of idea of what to expect. It always makes me see red when someone tells me they can’t listen to some new band just because “they’re not *insert genre here*”. It’s silly, and it doesn’t help anyone. Nah, I’d say it’s just done in a bit of a tongue-in-cheek style. I kinda like it (not the theme particularly, but the music).

    And of course, it’s only a good thing if you find a retailer that has the CD cheaper and ships to the USA. Feel free to edit these sorts of things into my posts if you feel the need for it!
