The latest recording effort from SALTATIO MORTIS is entitled Erwachen. And not unlike the band's previous work, the seven players once again uncover a deep and hidden meaning. After daring to dwell into modern times with Das Zweite Gesicht, they now awaken to embrace the contemporary trend. Erwachen not only awakes in the present, but also looks to the future as the the "medieval 7" continue to summon the dreams of the past. It is still the past, now flourishing in the present, that teaches Saltatio Mortis the craftsmanship with which to blend what was once with what is now. But because nothing blooms without roots, the relics of ancient origins are to be distinctively heard and felt: Bagpipes, shalms, and hurdy-gurdies are all witness to these origins. The electric guitar, bass, synthesizer, and drums embody the here and now. Critical relevant lyrics, diversified vocals, and an uncompromising production shape a sound that invokes the desire to experience the band in a live environment. The subconscious can now embrace the many facets of Erwachen—the many facets of SALTATIO MORTIS: From the heavy riffs to the sensous melodic vocal arrangements and grand finale. This versatility shines through with every live performance, as does the band's desire to interact with its audience. It too finds an avenue of expression in Erwachen; for it is the live environment that clearly motivates Saltatio Mortis, inspires and signals chaos to lead the magnificent seven to creation.
