Kanonenfieber

About

Kanonenfieber doesn't just play black metal; it exhumes history, dragging the horrors of World War I into the 21st century with uncompromising brutality and unflinching authenticity. Masterminded by the enigmatic Noise, Kanonenfieber crafts a soundscape of trench warfare – a dissonant, blast-beat-driven onslaught layered with samples of historical recordings and field reports. The music draws influence from black metal titans like Marduk and 1914, weaving in elements of death metal and a raw, almost industrial edge. Breaking through with their debut album, "Menschenmühle," Kanonenfieber quickly gained notoriety for its visceral depiction of war's dehumanizing effects. Each track is a harrowing narrative, meticulously researched and presented with historical accuracy. This dedication to authenticity, combined with Noise's commitment to anonymity, has cultivated a devoted following. Kanonenfieber transcends mere musical performance; it's a historical re-enactment via sonic terror. They offer no simple entertainment, instead forcing listeners to confront the grim realities of a conflict often sanitized in textbooks. Recent releases and upcoming performances continue this trend, promising an ever-deepening dive into the trenches of the past.
