Heimataerde has created something utterly unique, blending medieval music with modern hard electro. The out-of-print EP Unter den Linden, which focused on Western European influences, put the band on the map with an intoxicating combination of divergent styles. The new Vater EP explores the relationship between the Western crusaders and their Middle Eastern counterparts, resulting in absolutely amazing dance tracks think--Dead Can Dance in the 21st century.
