Dear caressing mourners,
we finally found a new guitarist and
can officially call ourselves a five-piece again. The new guy is
called Wolfgang „Sandman“ Sander, a skilled guitar player and insane
metalhead. He joined the band directly after the recordings of the
new album were completed. So you naturally can´t hear him on the new
output. In the meantime he got introduced to our friends and
families on a very intimate and private gig we played in our
rehearsal room some weeks ago. It was a blast! Please check our new
facebook site for some pictures of the event:

We´re also happy to unveil the title of our third album: „Deep
Wounds. Bright Scars.“. As mentioned above the recordings are done
and we are now facing the mixing stage, the mastering is due in
April or May. Once this all is finished we need to find a suitable
label to release „Deep Wounds. Bright Scars.“. The result is sure
enough a heavy and very intensive yet melancholic piece of metal
which makes us proud to the bone. We can´t wait to share the first
songs with you, it´s only a matter of time...
The boys.
What the heck... time flies. We are very sorry for the lack of updates from our end, we can´t believe more than a year has passed since we posted our last official newspiece. The past months we had to deal with some unpleasant situations in life, but we are back - indestructible so to say.
Apart from that we couldn´t find a proper replacement for our guitarist Benedikt who left the band some time ago. We knew it would be difficult, but it seems the MC family (we are truly insane) indeed is too exceptional. So for now we will remain as a four-piece...
However, no update without good news: we managed to create nine tracks for our new album which we will record in the weeks to come. And this is all that matters to you, isn´t it? The new songs are kicking major ass, some tunes are the heaviest in the history of MC, some the fastest and some others groove like shit and all of them will enchant you with beautiful melodies of course. The vocals still sound frustrated, fragile and full of despair. This well-known combination will surely please all fans of our first two albums „Imbalance“ and „Inner Exile“.
If everything works out well the new album will be released before summer 2011.
Up The Irons!

Dear Pessimists!
Thanks to everybody who came out to the past shows we played. We had a great time. Especially the show with Unleashed was an absolute honour for us! We also uploaded a live-clip for the song AS LONG AS WE ARE ONE online. We made it just for the fun of it. Check it out at:
Some bad news: Our guitarist Benedikt unfortunately decided to leave the band due to ongoing job obligations. He couldn't join the rehearsals etc. anymore as his schedule is simply too tight. He will help us out whenever and wherever he possibly can until we've found a new insane guy to play the axe of madness. Benedikt will always be a close friend of ours. Thanks for everything, dude!!!
Last but not least please head over to the MC online shop , as we finally have the limited South American version of our debut IMBALANCE including the Ozzy Osbourne cover CRAZY TRAIN in stock.
Ok, have a good time and all the best for 2009!
Drink to forget.

03.10.08 Osnabrück (D), Lagerhalle (w. Warhead and more)

Let´s start with some good news: Our new album “Inner Exile” is officially released!
We also have our own online shop. Don´t hesitate to get in contact with us directly if you like to get shirts, zip-hoodies and posters too. Click HERE to enter the shop.
The feedback we are receiving from the press so far is pretty good and it makes us feel kind of proud. Of course there are always people out there who cannot stand the sound we play, but it actually makes us feel even better as it proves that we are a band not using a common formula to create music just to please everybody. We do think that “Inner Exile” is something unique, something different. Pretty tough to give our music the right description… Thrash Metal? Not really. Emo-Thrash… not that bad actually haha! Metalcore we heard as well. What the heck? No fuckin´ way! Melodic Death Metal? The closest of all… still, but not really. Well, there you go: We are different … Feel free to check out our new baby “Inner Exile” and see you somewhere in time. The boys.
