Limited first Edition in Digipak!
GRAUSAME TÖCHTER (Cruel Daugthters), centered around lead singer Aranea Peel, is currently THE most extroverted music project from the German dark scene, stunning audiences again and again with spectacular live shows and immense artistic potential.
“BDSM for satisfaction” is GRAUSAME TÖCHTER's seventh studio album, boasting unparalleled stylistic variety: EBM, electro punk and dark wave find themselves mixed in with unexpected elements from genres such as indie guitar pop, blues, film score and classical music. The lyrics show off the core theme of the eccentric female artists, and always in intelligent fashion: Philosophically, poetically, satirically or with scathing irony. A very strong album!
This new opus was produced in the legendary Studio Nord in Bremen by two musical geniuses active and revered far beyond just the dark scene: Mixer Gregor Hennig and arranger Hans-Jürgen Osmers. With this, lead singer Aranea Peel had all the tools to perfectly adapt and realize the ideas around the theme of BDSM in a musical context. After all, BDSM is the core theme of Grau-
same Töchter, and this album shows that these experts of sadomasochism have much more
to say about it than one might expect.
The intelligent songs often show deeper meanings at a closer glance. The broad selection of
songs is characterized by variety: There are darkly romantic songs like “Schmerz” and “Verboten”, macabre comedic pieces like “Katz und Maus”, satirical and downright wicked ones
like “Annika wird Filmstar” and “Arroganz muss man sich leisten können”, comical pulp like
“Duelo en Mexico”, nightmarish visions such as “Schlaflied”, erotic statements like “Meine
Droge heißt Sex” and also songs like “Norden, Süden, Osten, Westen” which offer scathing
commentary on worldly affairs.
Philosophy and poetry with almost Brecht-like lucidity are shamelessly placed alongside the
hedonistic urges of dominant female artists. This might not be noticeable if the album is heard
parenthetically, but if given full attention, it will serve as marvelous entertainment.
“Grausame Töchter” show a lustful and intelligent vitality that is second to none. Considering
that, it is unsurprising that the bizarre girl group is now among the scene’s top attractions. And
whoever finds it all a little too shrill or even painful is retorted by Aranea Peel in one of the
songs: “Schmerz ist Liebe“, or: “Pain is Love”.
