German language music that fuses elements of metal and industrial in a manner very likely to appeal to fans of Rammstein, Oomph! or Joachim Witt and to a lesser extent, KMFDM or In Extremo. Bombastic, heavy instrumentation and deep male vocals with solid, pumping electronics. Features former members of Megaherz.
I. "And it got cold!"

The project Eisbrecher was started on a mild summer evening in 2002 by Alexx Wesselsky (lyrics/vocals) and Noel Pix (composition/keyboards, guitars, programming); both having already been successful before Eisbrecher with the rock group Megaherz not only in the German-speaking world, but also abroad (above all in the USA).

The desire for something new, for hard music without the ordinary metal clichés brought Alexx and Noel back together after all their fights during the Megaherz period. The charismatic, impulsively perverse, 6-foot provocateur Alexx and the sensitive, super-disciplined, charmingly cheeky music genius Noel have taken everything apart and put it back together, they've fought, avoided, and tolerated each other.

Eisbrecher's music is modern, electronic rock. Emotional, honest, and direct. The electronics form the base upon which Alexx and Noel build harder or softer sounds, depending on the theme. The programming is the core of the vision that Eisbrecher have of modern rock: interesting songs, progressively packaged and danceable. Eisbrecher have kept on this course even in 2006, although the guitars are more notable, effective, and present, making "Antikörper" harder than its older brother.

In their lyrics, Eisbrecher go on a journey through private and interpersonal states of feeling in a world growing cold. It's about the "me" and "you" as we're in the here and now; it's about what you make of it

II. "And it stays cold!"

After the club singles "Mein Blut" and "Fanatica" (both 2003) came the successful debut album "Eisbrecher" in January of 2004 (Zyx Music) which has sold approximately 20,000 copies to date worldwide. The daring campaign against the desperate and stigmatizing record company trend of copy protection caused a sensation -- two labeled recordable CDs were included with the first edition of the album for making legal private copies. The album track "Schwarze Witwe" made its way to a club staple and continues to please the hearts of both rockers and goths to this day.

In the spring of 2004, Eisbrecher finished their first headlining tour in Germany and Austria, followed by various festival appearances (including the thirteenth "Wave Gotik Treffen" in Leipzig, the "Deep Impact Festival" in Munich, "Campus Invasion Uni-Paderborn", and "Biker Festival Schleiz") and a few independent and support shows in 2005 (including "In Extremo" and "Das Ich"). On December 26, 2006, Eisbrecher played their last live concert for the time being at the "Noel Noir Festival" in Augsburg (with "Suicide Commando" and others) to fully devote themselves to the creation of the second masterpiece, which will send pleasurably icy shivers down the spines of fans of hard, emotional, electro rock starting on October 6, 2006.

III. "Caught cold handed!"

Through the live preparations and stage experiences, the two-man project grew into the six-headed rock band Eisbrecher. And with the second album "Antikörper", Noel, Alexx, and live keyboarder Max (who has been involved as the third force behind the song writing since 2003) pay tribute to the impressions and experiences from the shows: more guitars and power on the one hand and more pop and melody on the other. Album II will make the Eisbrecher's clear development and change audible and noticeable because Eisbrecher now have a history, a path. The last four years have left their marks in Eisbrecher-land.

With a new rock/metal record label (AFM records) and the usual exotic status in their artist roster (Doro, U.D.O., Destruction, Axxis), with a new distribution (Soulfood) and new structures on board, the Eisbrecher motto for 2006 is:

"Dress warm! A new ice age is beginning!"

In the USA and Canada, Eisbrecher's fate is in the hands of Dancing Ferret Discs.

Greetings from Brazil!!
Your music is just awesome!
So...I have only one question to the person who manages this channel (I'll be grateful for some answer): does the band think about an international tour (including South America)?
