Semper Fidelis is released tomorrow!

With the release of Semper Fidelis, NACHTMAHR expand their claim to power once more! Known as a force to reckon with in the current industrial scene, supreme commander Thomas Rainer will please his army of nightmare warriors and the members of the imperial guard with a musical output that is more empowered, matured and combat ready than ever before.



To commemorate this event that will leave nobody unopinionated, our Propaganda Department will launch the offical NACHTMAHR website at www.nachtmahr.at to serve as your future main source of information surrounding the band.

We also want to renew our invitation to our exclusive release events. So dress in your best uniform, get down there and celebrate the album NACHTMAHR Style - and maybe even win some of the amazing prices that are given away!

Pictures of you at these parties in your NACHTMAHR gear or uniform/military style are very welcome for the "Imperial Hall of Fame" Submit your pictures to: propaganda@nachtmahr.at

The Art of Semper Fidelis, Orkus and Dates

Apart from the merciless and bass-drum ridden arangements the artwork plays a very important role in the world of NACHTMAHR. This also remains true for Semper Fidelis which is due for release Friday 26th Nov 2010. We include a sneak peak into the lavish art of Semper Fidelis in this newsletter, so you can see for yourself what the modern interpretation of the project's totalitarian imperial style looks like.

All German speakers can read more about the new style of artwork, the musical development of NACHTMAHR and Thomas Rainer's plans for world domination in an exclusive interview in the December issue of ORKUS magazine (www.orkus.de) that is availble from tomorrow.

Included with this magazine is a DVD about Amphi festival which features a live video clip of "Weil ich's kann" from said Festival and a video interview with the Supreme Commander himself.

Our propaganda departement has organised release parties to celebrate "Semper Fidelis" in the next few weeks. So dress in your best uniform, get down there and celebrate the album NACHTMAHR Style - and maybe even win some of the amazing prices that are given away!

About the Studio work for Semper Fidelis...

Dear comrades,

Supreme Commander Thomas Rainer strictly opposed the idea of creating "Semper Fidelis" only in the digital domain and so he teamed up with reknown sound engineer and producer Patrick Damiani (Rome, Falkenbach,...) at Tidalwave studio to create a charcteristic and unique sound for the album.

Thomas Rainer: "The cooperation with Patrick took the sound of NACHTMAHR to the next level. We had a wide array of sophisticated analogue studio equipment at our disposal and used it excessivley to create a merciless and powerful yet organic sound for the songs of Semper Fidelis. I am very proud of what we have achieved and am convinced that this album will set the dancefloors and hearts aflame all over the world"

The next Newsletter will grant you a first peek at the extensive and lavish artwork of NACHTMAHR's third full length album.

As the release date draws nearer the forces are preparing for the next shows and the supreme commander is working on a new setlist for all concerts that are scheduled after the album is out. If you want to assist in this process suggest your current favorites at: bit.ly/b7wSc8
