Band history

The debut album Schlachtwerk was released on September 9, 2005 on the Massacre Records label . In the booklet of the album, a follow-up album with the title Scar World was announced.
style
music
The music is strongly reminiscent of Eisregen's publications, although Eisblut completely dispenses with the use of the violin and keyboard and Roth relies more on clear and less guttural singing than in Eisregen.
Texts
The lyrics , which, as with Eisregen, are written by Michael Roth, are brutal and obscene and take up themes from well-known horror and splatter films . The difference to freezing rain is that the depicted brutality is presented more bluntly and obscenely. For example, the titles Über dem Jenseits and Am Glockenseil (also known from the Eisregen album Wundwasser ) on the debut album Schlachtwerk , which was released in 2005, are dedicated to the Italian director Lucio Fulci , who was best known for his zombie films from the late 1970s and 1980s.
- That with ? ( Question mark ) titled song contains a fragment of a song from the SpongeBob SquarePants movie (“I am a deaf nut, you are a deaf nut ...”) and is according to the lyrics “for the children from Darmstadt ”.
- Lullaby from Manslaughter is about the German serial killer Adolf Seefeldt , also known as "Sandman".
- Ghost in the Rubble treats the German serial killer Bruno Lüdke .
- The film Über dem Jenseits served as a template for Beyond the Beyond .
- Human meat grinder is about the mass murderer Karl Denke . The song was originally planned for the album Wundwasser von Eisregen .
- Am Glockenseil alludes to the horror film A zombie hung on the bell rope .
Artwork
The artwork for the debut album Schlachtwerk was done by Berg Morbach, a former member of Eisregen, who also designed the artwork for the Eisregen Wundwasser album.
