The clock, is ticking Counting, from dawn of man Your clock, is ticking Counting to extinction of man 3x Men, against, men attacking, your own kind This is what you always wanted The world, you have consumed You suffer, you will be hunted Die in hell, you presumed You suffer, you will be hunted Die in hell, you presumed 2x Your time, has finally come Climate, destruction is real The end, of human existence Now you know, how that feels Why, are they hunting me I, want to leave this place I, can not reach gods place

Heavy feet in heavy shoes The field is flat, full Of bloody trails Your will is strong Gaze of steel What you find is not What you were looking for The air gets hotter and hotter The sound gets louder and louder Keep going, keep going, keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Forward keep going Your hands are strong Your legs are getting lame Ragged fibers, faded skin Your light is getting weaker Your head so heavy Your body hit the ground Your blood flow stops here now The air gets hotter and hotter The sound gets louder and louder Keep going, keep going, keep going Keep going, keep going, keep going Forward and forward

I've been lying to myself For so long Eyes closed, downtrodden Obliged to be alone What do I want? How do I know? Everythings hallow How do I go on? I am not just broken Left that realm long ago I am dead, I am hopeless A void that persists For your ego I have left a lot of things Behind over the years I have let a lot of My dreams go But none of that compares To what I lost to my own fears The chances I dismissed devoured Me whole There's no more to inspire Empty feelings No desires Where did my dreams go? When dreams die What can a dreamer sow?

about

German master of power noise, Sebastian Sünkler, has been creating electronic music under the moniker, STAHLSCHLAG, since the early 2000's and in that time has released seven studio album's and an absolute tonne of remixes for other music projects. Now we are graced with his latest album, A ZONE OF SILENCE. The previous album, Alive, alluded to a shift in sound, so do not expect this to be the same beast.

There is still the grating metallic electronics and crunchy rhythms, but this new beast feels both contemporary and hypnotically ancient at the same time. Collaborations with Mikrometrik, Ultra, Morbid Echo and Sublimenal stimuli, bringing stunning vocalisation, while the instrumental tracks will mesmerise you with their tribal beats, touching the primitive part of your soul.

Reviews:

CHAIN D.L.K. (Marc Tater)

"What you'll get can't be called silence at all. Meticulously Sebastian installs layered, rusty walls of drones and Ambient-like sound experiments to combine them with a straight, variable, almost 4-on-the-floor rhythm- and percussion set. Also not to forget: bring on the Noise! Synth-textures and percussion works in Sebastian's sound expression are often genre-typical distorted, mangled and overdriven, just with the right mood to follow-up some idols like Xotox, Synapscape and/or artists more based into the danceable TBM-genre like S.A.M. or Noisuf-X.

But generally, “A Zone of Silence” has asides the usual Noise-driven action some remarkable elements to offer, which are drifting away from the expected noisy course.

Stahlschlag in the year 2022 sounds still motivated and has successfully expanded its own sound plethora and Sebastian has integrated it successfully into his compositions."

Onyx Music Reviews (Adele Sinnamon)

"It amazes me when I hear artists who can take fuzz and distortion, crafting it into something musical and even dancefloor ripping. Hamburg is home to Sebastian Sünkler and he is STAHLSCHLAG, a mind blowing project that creates electronic/industrial power and rhythmic noise. Literally music that slams into your cranium at full tilt, boring into your skull but in a fun way. August saw the release of STAHLSCHLAG’s newest album, A Zone Of Silence.

It is a near visceral response to this particular album. Sünkler really has reached a point that he can use electronics and programming to elicit an emotional reaction from the listener whilst painting pictures for your imagination. The last album, ALIVE, indicated that Sebastian was growing and changing his style, so the inclusion of vocalists have brought a new facet to STAHLSCHLAG’s sound and while there is still the rhythmic/power noise, a thoughtfulness of using less to state more. It is a beautifully crafted album which is name your price on Bandcamp and all monies are being donated to a charity. Get yourself A Zone Of Silence."

about

STAHLSCHLAG Hamburg, Germany

This Bandcamp page is for all of my music projects:

STAHLSCHLAG is an Electro Industrial Noise project from Germany.

Fundustrial is a side project that is all about having fun with fast beats, technoid sounds paired with samples from cartoons.

The project In Tenebris stands for the darkness in me and helps to express this through creative energy.

2050AD is just harsh noise because it is fun.
