Background notes
Archive material and source history
Fäulnis formed in 1994, part of the German "Neue Deutsche Todeskunst" movement that focused on darker themes. The band's original members were Uwe Bastiansen on vocals and guitar and Jochen Arbeit on drums. They've released albums like "Trauermantel" in 1997 and "Kartoffelkäfer" in 2000, with later work including "Licht" in 2009 and "Dunkel" in 2012.
Their music often deals with difficult subjects. The song "30. Juli, bewölkt" describes a young woman's suicide, which led some listeners to question whether the band was romanticizing self-harm. Fäulnis maintained they were simply confronting these themes directly rather than glorifying them.
Other tracks like "Angstzustand" and "Kopfkrieg" continue this approach to dark, introspective material. The band has worked with other artists in similar circles, including De/Vision and Lacrimosa.
