艺人介绍

Blutengel是一支来自德国的吸血鬼电子歌特/工业舞曲乐队,曲风受欧洲舞曲影响很大。Blutengel中文意为血天使,乐队于1998年成立于柏林,由一男三女组成,分别是Christian Chris Pohl,Constance Rudert,Ulli Goldmann 及 Sonja 组成。其中队长也是乐队的灵魂人物Christian Chris Pohl一人包办创作、出品、录音、舞台设计和灯光。Blutengel的曲风以 electronica,gothic 及 industrial 为主, 并以男、女、电子混声为特色。

Christian Chris Pohl低沉特别的声线和清且柔的女声配合得丝丝入扣,唱出一首首浪漫而令人着迷的歌曲,具有天才的黑暗感觉,其声音也被认为极具感染力。 Blutengel 歌曲主题环绕着“爱”: 大多数都与超越死亡的爱情有关。间中亦有以“天使”“魔鬼”为主题。 Band已陆续举行了多场Live,灯光以及现场表现力非常震撼,简直就是一场吸血鬼的舞会。

The German group Blutengel (Blood Angel) were founded by singer Chris Pohl, after contractual and legal problems forced him to exit the popular German band Seelenkrank. An electronica pop group with goth overtones, the band has gone through a few member changes while sticking to a configuration of one male and two female singers. They sing in German and in English, with lyrics exploring love, passion, and romance in highly dramatic tones. The original two female singers were photographer and singer Nina Bendigkeit (another Seelenkrank alumni) and Katie Roloff. Bendigkeit left after the debut album, Child of Glass, was released to modest club success in 1999, to devote time to her growing success as a photographer. It was an amicable parting, as Bendigkeit would later work on the band's publicity materials; she was replaced as a vocalist by Gini Martin. The next album, Seelenschmerz, continued to develop the band's fan base in Germany, with several singles garnering airplay; it was enough for Pohl and the group to finally perform live, and their debut performance was for 10,000 fans at a festival in Leipzig. The success strained relationships in the band, and in 2001 both Roloff and Martin left Blutengel to found the group Tristesse de la Lune, stating that Pohl's leadership had become overbearing. They were replaced by Eva Pölzing and session singer Constance Rudert.

The next album proved to be the band's breakthrough in Germany -- Angel Dust placed 58th in the Top 100 albums of the year, and the singles &Angel of the Night& and &Vampire Romance& were national hits. Pohl retooled their live show, turning it into a theatrical spectacle, featuring dancers, pyrotechnics, and melodramatic gothic sets and costumes. Only the three singers and dancers were visible to the audience, as the musicians were either hidden or taped. They became darlings of the European electronic festival circuit, and steadily built an ever larger fan base. Another album and a live concert DVD followed, and the band finally toured overseas, visiting the U.S.A., Mexico, and England in 2005, and gaining a U.S. release for the CD Demon Kiss. In 2005 Eva Pölzing left the group for personal reasons, and has been replaced by Ulrike Goldmann. The constant lineup changes have not bothered their fan base, as sales have been steadily growing for their back catalog of EPs and full-length releases. Blutengel fans have been waiting patiently for a new album, but as Chris Pohl is also in the groups Pain of Progress, Terminal Choice, and Tumor, and owner of the Fear Section record label, it might be a while coming.
