German dying metal band Eisregen is in the main notable for singing in their native lyric instead than English and for existence "indexed" by Die Bundesprüfstelle für Jugendgefährdende Medien (i.e., the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons). For example, the band's album Krebskolonie (1998) is banned from being played in public for interview members under the age of 18, a fate known as verbreitungsverbot, on explanation of its lyrics, which were deemed "grausamen, menschenverachtenden, frauenfeindlichen und verrohenden" (i.e., cruel, human-despising, misogynous, and brutalizing). Other Eisregen albums, including Farbenfinsternis (2001) and Wundwasser (2004), were indexed as well -- actions that sternly circumscribed the band's commercial ability patch at the same prison term engendering infamy. In fact, it was in the wake of Wundwasser's indexing that the band enjoyed its best chart debut to escort, as Blutbahnen (2007) entered the German album chart at number 32.
Eisregen was formed in Tambach-Dietharz, Thuringia, in 1995 by singer Michael "Blutkehle" Roth, guitarist Michael "Bursche" Lenz, keyboardist Daniel "DF" Fröbing, and drummer Ronny "Yantit" Fimmel. Rounds of demonstration recordings preceded the band's official debut release, the 7" single "Fleischhaus" (1997). A recording narrow with Last Episode resulted, and Eisregen went about recording Zerfall (1998), their full-length debut for the label. Next came Krebskolonie (1998), which, as said, was by and by indexed by the BPJM in August 2003 upon its reprint. Krebskolonie is noted as well for its inclusion body of fiddler Theresa "2T" Trenks, world Health Organization would put up to the band's albums henceforth (until her release in 2006, that is), and the record album remains a fan favourite.
After a few more releases -- "Fleischfestival" EP (1999), Leichenlager (2000), Farbenfinsternis (2001) -- Eisregen left Last Episode, which was facing insolvency, and signed a new undertake with Massacre Records. The label number 1 reissued a duo back-catalog items -- Krebskolonie in connective with the "Fleischfestival" EP in 2003, and Zerfall with the Dassie Ende stilboestrol Weges demonstration in 2004 -- and then finally released the get-go all-new record album by Eisregen in tercet years, Wundwasser (2004). It was the band's first to chart, expenditure i hebdomad at figure 87. A CD-EP/DVD, Hexenhaus (2005), followed not farseeing thereafter, and in 2007 Eisregen returned with another full-length (Blutbahnen) and follow-up EP (Eine Erhalten).
