Die Schatten veröffentlichen über 12 Jahre nach dem Entstehen des Albums und nach vielen Jahren der Möglichkeit des freien Downloads über die Homepage der Band, Ihr Album auf Jamendo.
 
Im April 1996 nahmen Die Schatten ihr zweites Tape "ESTUANS INTERIUS" auf. Dieses zweite Machwerk war ursprünglich in einer streng limitierten Auflage als CD erhältlich (auch als Tape). "ESTUANS INTERIUS" ist insgesamt ein viel persönlicheres Album als das erste. Das liegt vor allen Dingen daran , daß im Gegensatz zum ersten Album die Texte mehr eigene Erfahrungen schildern. Musikalisch ist eine Weiterentwicklung zu hören. Das Metrum wurde straffer, die Gitarre härter und der Gesamtklang durch selbsterstellter Sample abgerundet. Mehr Infos Sounds und Texte auf der Schatten-Hauptseite.
 
DIE SCHATTEN recorded their second album "Estuans Interius" at Eastern 1996. Moreover "Estuans Interius"  was available at limited CD edition which is sold out.  In addition this album describes more personal experiences. The music gets more harder because the guitar is tougher and DIE SCHATTEN use more samples. More infos, sounds and lyrics on our website www.dieschatten.de

I hated this kind of music in 80-ies. It was too synthetic and cold for me. Besides that I am great fan of completely different kind of german bands like CAN and Einsturzende Neubauten.

But still, when I started listen Estuans Interius I couldn't stop to listen it until the very end. First it is masterfully produced and executed. With german precision too. Every tone is on the right place and everything goes so smooth that it's unbelivable. I usually hate this too, I like imperfect, flawed, improvised. But I must say this is f....ing great. Vocals to. They fit as an glove with music. Dunno what to say more and not to sound pathetic.

Graet work guys. Thanks for sharing this.

We start with Dämonentanz, which has a nice tone to it and feels well-balanced. Already it has pretty much covered the listed genres within the first track. Looking through the track list I can believe I can see a gothic influence as well. A certain leaning towards mysticism at least. Nice instrumental work, constructed well. Brief has a lovely atmosphere to it from the start, I only wish I could understand the nature of the letter. The third track has nice vocals, and a mild ambient backdrop to begin. This drops into a good tempo. Phönix has obvious connotations, despite my confusion about the last track name. (Is 'shore' meant literally, or metaphorically?) From the ashes, it rises and will always remain an appealing opportunity and metaphor. Upbeat, almost danceable, and I could see it going down well on the right floor, with the right crowd.

Estuans Interius suitably ecclesiastical. Very nice track with a different metre to the others, which I suppose one could only expect. Reverential in tone and expression. The next track, Tumor, captures an essence of another sort of reverence, that of life and its potential ending through illness. It took my parents both away from me many years ago and will forever increase its presence in our lives, whether we like it or not. Quite a sad song I think and seemingly heartfelt. Again though, I'm taking things literally. Walpurgis is the sense of paganism that oft besets the gothic in music, it's a common theme for a song. Having known the likes of Candia from Inkubus Sukkubus and many other witches, they tend to flock together in terms of beliefs and creative expression. I think it captures an essence of it, from the feel and tone of the track. Worshipful reverence to old gods. Sumpf starts fantastically, I really feel the sense of wading through a quagmire of well-balanced music. Sehr gut!-)

I believe this is the groups 3rd album, and I have to say I am pleased with it. Once again melodic, and dark, as well as ambient yet hard. Another albumb destined for my Sansa Fuze mp3 player.

I can imagine that in 1996 this work was ahead of time. Strong artistic value of your work! Thank you!

Wow, das kracht richtig. Ich finde das Album gut produziert und der Beat animiert zum mitmachen. Teilweise erinnert mich die Gitarrenarbeit ein wenig an irische Elemente ähnlich Lord of the dance, dann aber wieder eher an alte Metal Themen. Ihr habt einen guten Sound, der auch für einen meiner Naturfilme geeignet wäre. Also der Beat und die Reduktion auf das wesentliche sind das was ihr gut drauf habt. Manche Dinge würden sich gut für Mittelalterliche Filme eignen. Ich habe da gerade erst ein Video zur Burg in Burghausen fertig gestellt, da hätte es auch gepasst. Ich habe da aber dann zusammen mit Vladimir ein Stück geschrieben... an nur 7 Stunden komplett fertig. Unsere Nächste CD wird daher eine Instrumental Synthi Pop Filmmusik werden. Hier das Burg Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Re3Fbz5Urs

Je länger man eure CD anhört umso mehr wäre es auch für einen Film wie Illuminate geeignet :-) Ich stelle mir eine schlecht beleuchtete Kirche vor, in der eine Frau vor, die in einem alten Brautkleid barfuss und alleine vor dem Altar steht und als sie sich umdreht ist die wieder erwarten Bildhübsch... na ja so mit Steadicam einmal um sie rum und dann zusammen mit mir im Gegenlicht aus der Kirche in die gleissende Sonne...

Klasse gemacht. 10/10

This can surely be(come) a classic. Amazing sounds and musicality. Great drive, energetic and very good variation in the instruments, rocks and swings with a nice decent bombastic twitch. Downloaded it and played it while driving my car, great, can imagine a great livefeel too on dance floor and in clubs. Great sounds started already on the debutalbum, but i like this much more. There is only a little problem concerning the vocals, these tracks scream for a real singer, who throws of his modesty. I think the singer is the writer, and not the other way around. Time for a remix. Very curious what you guys are doing lately, where are the new releases??? A 10 for instrumentalism....

Well crafted songs with good production values. Danceable, listenable, easy to like. I was thinking a 9 would be a good rating for this.. But then I noticed I was listening the album through for the 3rd time and so let's make it a 10.

Die Schatten is like Ultravox the band. Energetic,gothic sounding, new age,electro, pop band,excellent music,and a good solid album.

dunkle Lyrik geträumt, Musik straff und räumlich, surrealistische Anklänge - sehr anhörbar
