are much more than your average rock band - they are human beings concerned about the world today and let it all flow into their musical body of work. Life itself and all its emotional ups and downs is their inspiration. Storytelling and sharing experiences is what counts. Especially concerning travelling since it allows people to experience other cultures and mindsets.
The
Reiter also pick up the motif of apocalypse over and over again since they believe humanity has taken the wrong direction.
Die Apokalyptischen Reiter try to send their audience on a true tour de force and release them with a positive and relaxed feeling. Packed club shows and chart success show how much the fanbase of the
Reiter is growing!
'Have a nice trip' marked their first German album chart entry ever in the top 100, whereas the successor 'Riders Of A Storm' climbed all the way to #31. Their last album 'Licht' finally made ininto the top 30 and paved the way for this masterpiece 'Moral & Wahnsinn'. It was recorded at the Principal Studios in Münster/Germany, and the production comes from
Die Apokalyptischen Reiter themselves plus
Vincent Sorg who also took care of the previous 'Licht' und 'Riders On The Storm'. He also handled mixing and mastering.
