• Legendary Neue Deutsche Härte pioneers OOMPH! are back with their 14th studio album, Richter und Henker! (EN: Judge and Executioner).
• The band hit #1 on the Official German Album Charts with their previous album and Napalm Records debut, Ritual (2019).
• The highly successful band’s biggest hit to date, their 2004 single “Augen Auf!”, is a timeless classic, while countless massive international tours and festival appearances paved the band’s way.
• The upcoming full-length, Richter und Henker, kicks off a new era as it marks the first album with a new lineup, as CR4P and FLUX are joined by new vocalist DER SCHULZ.
• The new album is set to be released on September 8, 2023 and was once again produced and recorded by the band themselves.
• Richter und Henker clearly proves that OOMPH! are back stronger than before with their new line up, charging straight forward! Album opener “Wem Die Stunde Schlägt” (en: For Whom The Bell Tolls) makes an immediate statement, propelled by a hefty dose of industrial metal.
• Title track “Richter und Henker” captivates the listener with a mixture of hooky guitars and chanting vocals, while criticizing ignorant social movements.
• New wave influences are present on heavy and groovy anti-war anthem “Nur Ein Mensch” (en: Only A Human) - a future hit and strong sign against warmongering and empty slogans that force hatred and war.
• On “Wut” (Anger), OOMPH! is supported by none other than genre idol Joachim Witt.
• Since their formation in 1989, OOMPH! has emerged as a highly influential band that has even inspired later Neue Deutsche Härte giants such as Rammstein.
• With Richter und Henker, the Neue Deutsche Härte masters prove that they remain a leading force in the scene, even after their first line-up change in more than 30 years of existence.
