Artist description Totenhaus was founded out of necessity in the wake of Autumn, 2001, by members Khristquäler and Totgeburt. It's purpose is to incite a return to traditional, raw Black Metal. To prove once and for all that Black Metal in its rawest form is still the most powerful and the most atmospheric expression of the art-form. Totenhaus has vowed to prove this truth to any like-minded thinkers and to all of those opposed. After the band's inception, Khristquäler immediately began writing music with Totgeburt as well as lyrics. The songs were written rehearsed and on a small scale, performed. However, the little exposure Totenhaus has had has been met with surprise and awe. Those converted have predicted a Black Metal reform, the likes of which were perhaps not expected to be realised, especially coming out of the US. You be the judge.
