Owl's (Germany) founder and primary songwriter Christian Kolf, who's also a member of the critically renowned metal band Valborg (Prophecy Productions) and founder of the label Zeitgeister, created the band in the mid-2000's as a necessity to further explore and challenge his musical creativity. What began as a death metal project has evolved over the years, incorporating Kolf's eclectic tastes and influences that's resulted in an amalgam of death and doom that conjures memories of Type O Negative, Jesu, Neurosis, Anathema and Meshuggah among others.
"I have to say that this album is still heavy for me when I listen to it," says Kolf. "There are a lot true memories connected to that album, but foremost it's about my friend René Marquis who died some months ago, who played bass on it. He was really a nice chap. You could nerd with him about music and instruments for hours. He gave us all a big vibe. And to have him on board for this album was very very helpful. Sometimes I thought "why should I do this, it's stupid, just chill and make music when better times come," because I knew that it would be draining somehow. But René always said "do it." It was good to have a partner for this album, someone I could talk too and share it with."
