Now, with more than 30 years in the scene, the band continues to showcase why they are heralded as one of the best of the genre with their new album, Inglorious Darkness. After releasing 15 studio albums, three live albums, various compilations and splits, and performing hundreds of headliner shows and festivals around the globe, the band returns to their German roots on the album - not only presenting new songs performed in German, but furthermore, releasing a German version of their trademark track "Tears of Time," now entitled "Tränen der Zeit".
