Heaven Shall Burn
HEAVEN SHALL BURN are a phenomenon. Instead of roaming distant shores in order to seek for innovations the five-piece from Saalfeld/Weimar, Germany is rather heading for well known territories in order to shed their collective skin. For years they have been drawing creative impulses from the long-term friendship between the individual members. Despite releasing new studio albums regularly they are hardly ever in a real hurry. “We take our time to finalize our songs and don’t record them before we feel that they are ready”, explains Alexander Dietz. For “Invictus“ [the full title of which is “Invictus” (Iconoclast III)] HEAVEN SHALL BURN returned to Tue Madsen’s Antfarm Studio in Aarhus, Denmark. Again, the album was produced by the two guitarists Maik Weichert and Alexander Dietz. “Invictus” is the 3rd part of the “Iconoclast”-story after “Iconoclast” (21 in the German Media Control Charts) and their DVD “Bildersturm” (German DVD Charts 3, album charts 54, Austrian DVD Charts 9). Again stories about unconventional heroes are being told, a different light is cast upon well known idols and legends.
