ROCKSTORY
"( IN EXTREMO BIOGRAPHY)"
"In Extremo (Latin for At the Edge) is a German Medieval metal band originating from Berlin. The band's musical style combines metal with Medieval traditional songs, blending the sound of the standard rock/metal instruments with historical instruments. Versions of well-known traditional/Medieval ballads make up the main part of their repertoire, but the band has written an increasing share of original material in recent years. In Extremo began as two projects: a nameless, purely Medieval band, and a rock band. On 11 April 1995, during the recording for that year's season, Michael Rhein found the project name "In Extremo". Most of the band members perform under stage names and the current line up consists of Michael Robert Rhein Marco Ernst-Felix Zorzytzky,Kay Lutter, André Strugala, Sebastian Oliver Lange,Florian Speckardt. The cross-pollination from groups such as Corvus Corax and Bathory, encouraged In Extremo in 1995 to attempt to start a band combining bagpipes and other traditional instruments with rock guitars. In August 1996, they began work on the first In Extremo album, which already contained two tracks of the new rock project. Because the album had no official name, it became known as Gold because of the golden cover. In February 1997, the single "Der Galgen" ("The Gallows"), quickly sold out in Medieval markets. In Extremo played separately as a Medieval band and a rock band, until on 29 March 1997, when they played their first live rock concert. The two projects were officially merged on 11 January 1998. Over the years, the band's music became more heavy metal-based, while at the same time becoming increasingly commercially successful. The classical instruments, however – bagpipes, shawms and lutes – still play a large role. The band is likewise noted for their conspicuous stage costumes and known for using pyrotechnics in their concerts, including Der Morgenstern playing cymbals which have been set on fire. In February 2010 Der Morgenstern left the band and Florian Speckardt was announced as his replacement on drums. Since then, they have proceeded to release three albums: Sterneneisen, Kunstraub and Quid Pro Quo, all of which have reached the top 10 in the German charts, with Sterneneisen and Quid Pro Quo both having number 1 positions for a time. Their 13th album, Kompass zur Sonne, was scheduled to be released in May 2020, but was delayed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. "
