When JFN was forced into exile in late 1999, and DMD refused to carry on with Absurd despite the explicit wish of JFN, it was up to Wolf to take care of the band not only in his former role as “manager” but now as vocalist too. With the approval of JFN, he reformed the Absurd line-up in 2001 and together with Unhold he went to the studio recording “Werwolfthron” – a comeback album featuring songs and lyrics originally written by DMD and JFN in the 1990ties. Many of the songs later to be found on “Werwolfthron” were supposed to be recorded for “Facta Loquuntur” in the first place, hence it is safe to say both records belong together like the two sides of the same coin.

The album title was an idea of Rob Darken, who kindly gave permission to Absurd to use it instead. Now “Werwolfthron” is made available on digipak format.

It was 15 years ago when JFN, just recently released from jail once more, came up with the idea of Absurd recording and releasing a compilation of fourteen songs once written during the first ten years of band history. These songs were previously recorded under subpar conditions which obscured their true potential by poor sound and performance. Be that as it may, we consider them as some of our best songs ever, and for the sake of showing their true qualities we decided to record them once again. In addition, one new song as well as a cover song were recorded for this release.

“Der fünfzehnjährige Krieg” was greeted with enthusiasm and praise from our fans, and now we make this compilation available as a black edition with two bonus songs (featuring our Swedish friends Niklas and Erik). Available on digipak format. Comes with booklet featuring all lyrics.

ABSURD will soon return with a new mini-album, “Das Heer aus dem Dunkel”, to be released on 10″ MLP as well as CD. Four songs about exile, resurrection, revenge, and annihilation that tell a cohesive story. The cover artwork was done by Ainul Iblis. We will preview music, and set a release date for the MLP, in due time.

In addition, ABSURD is working on a new EP titled “Prana Atma,” dedicated to the memory of Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg. JFN has been deeply engaged with this historical figure for quite some time, describing him as an “archetype of black metal.” In 2018, he authored an extensive lecture about the Baron, which can be read here: https://weltenfeind.info/2023/02/02/the-white-god-of-war-baron-roman-von-ungern-sternberg-1886-1921/ The cover artwork was done by Vhan Artworks & Printing. We will preview music, and set a release date for the EP, in due time.

Twenty-five years ago, DMD and JFN came together for the last time to record an album together for Absurd: “Asgardsrei.” With this, they aimed to express a pan-Germanic concept that was also being realized at the same time by the Allgermanische Heidnische Front, founded by Varg Vikernes in Norway. “Asgardsrei” became a significant cornerstone of the young NSBM (National Socialist Black Metal) movement, and since then, this album has been re-released in many variations and formats.

Now, there is a special anniversary edition of “Asgardsrei” on CD, complete with a 24-page booklet containing all the song lyrics and essays from the original release printed in both German and English. Gloria Germania!
