With "Romantik III," the Austro-Hungarian duo Bergfried presents the successor to "Romantik I" (2022) and "Romantik II" (2023). The lineup consists of Erech von Lothringen, who plays all instruments, and singer Anna de Savoy.

The name Erech von Lothringen is not entirely unknown in underground circles, as the Viennese is the founder of numerous different projects, primarily in the black metal genre. He explains: "In recent years, I've mainly done black metal-related projects, even though perhaps only two of them were truly pure black metal. With Golden Blood, it was more in the direction of thrash, heavy, and even a bit of power metal. I listen to a wide variety of metal genres myself, and black metal is the smaller part of that."

"I only had the band name with the title of the first EP, without having written any songs: Bergfried »Romantik I«," the multi-instrumentalist describes the project's beginnings. "Musically, I wanted to go into the Grime Stone Records corner, which didn't work out so well, and the songs became rockier than I expected.

So ultimately, it's no wonder, because at the time, I was listening almost exclusively to 70s and 80s hard rock and AOR."

The new "Romantik III" is an exceptionally catchy, very melodic album, which doesn't sound nearly as dark as the song titles might suggest. In a positive sense, the material borders on pop here and there ("Fallen From Grace"), although of course, there's (almost) always a hint of melancholy. "That's probably due to my love of Meat Loaf," explains Erech von Lothringen. "When I was a kid holding "Bat Out Of Hell," I was expecting the heaviest album of all time, and then that's exactly what didn't happen. The artwork and song titles on "Romantik III" are rather dark, and you definitely approach it with different expectations, but overall, everything somehow fits together."

On "Romantik III," Erech von Lothringen is joined by drummer Fabio Alessandrini (known from Annihilator, Bonfire, and Enforcer). Guest vocalists include the impressive Anna de Savoy, Maria Nesh of Red Eye Temple, Sarah Kitteringham of Smoulder, and Damna of Elvenking.
