Toundra announce new album ‘Das Cabinet des Dr.Caligari’

TOUNDRA have announced a new album!

The upcoming album, titled Das Cabinet des Dr.Caligari, is the brand new effort from the experimental Spanish band and is scheduled to be released in February next year via InsideOut/Century Media.

The upcoming album is a soundtrack to the German silent horror film directed by Robert Wiene that turns exactly 100 years old in 2020.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, Das Cabinet des Dr.Caligari is a movie with a very strong visual energy. It’s a film that takes elements of the terror movies to speak about authoritarianism. About how ideas can be controlled and eventually lead a human individual to do the worst things. It was premiered in between-war period, and it represents an advice about the real danger of some ideologies that nowadays are getting a new life across Europe; ideologies based in intolerance. That’s why we like to see this film as historical document that invites to some conscious thinking rather than let ourselves go where intolerants want to take us.”

Das Cabinet des Dr.Caligari is set for release on February 28th via InsideOut/Century Media Records.
