Cromwell
Black Chapter Red
After a long wait of 19 years they are back with "Black Chapter Red". The character of the songs from the new album is much more different compared to their tracks from earlier days. The original band founders Eric Trauzettel and Wolfgang Tffner were joined by Holger Weckbach and Frank Nowack. The replacement of the female voice by a male contributes to a more powerful expression to Cromwells music. Describing lyrically the daily life and private feelings of individuals during the cold war. Their dark and dense music is transporting these sentimental aspects by melancholic keyboard lines, based on pounding bass and guitar riffs, driven and motorized by powerful drumming. For PPR they were a sensational discovery and one of the most unique bands in the Neo Prog scene and an excellent choice for lovers of conceptually complex and musically strong Neo Prog.
