Limited Edition
Romantik III [Bone] Vinyl
Only 19 left in stock.
Romantik III is Bergfried's debut full-length, the payoff after two EPs spent building toward it, pressed here on bone vinyl.
Erech von Lothringen plays every instrument and Anna de Savoy sings, an unusual duo setup that has somehow produced music that sounds like a full band at speed. Romantik I and Romantik II, both EPs released in 2022 and 2023, were clearly a runway rather than the destination, and this album is where the project earns its wingspan, drummer Fabio Alessandrini, who has kept time for Annihilator and Enforcer, brought in to give the songs real muscle behind de Savoy's melodic delivery. The genuinely surprising thing about this record is how bright it sounds despite titles that promise nothing but gloom, melancholy running underneath rather than dominating outright.
Dark Wings sets the tone, catchy enough to border on pop without losing any weight. Queen of the Dead brings in Maria Nesh and Sarah Kitteringham for a genuinely stacked vocal arrangement, Serenades leans furthest into the record's tenderness, and Star-Crossed Love closes the emotional arc with the melodrama the title demands.
A debut album that arrives sounding like a band already several records into a career. Two EPs of preparation will do that.
