Letzte Instanz

古典，金屬，哥特，竭盡的在另類中釋放自己。 小提琴和大提琴在搖滾的節(jié)奏中交相輝映出交響樂般的浪漫。 又仿佛聽到民謠中洋溢出最純粹的情感。 Letzte Instanz——無止盡的歡愉和無限的音樂。 Letzte Instanz——追求著心靈上的的至高純凈,，探測著靈魂的無盡深刻及情感的無限寬廣。莽撞的嘗試在音樂之上找尋生活的平衡。 樂隊于1997年成立于德國藝術(shù)文化之都德累斯頓。 最初的成員均來自前東德，在城墻的包圍之中積淀起對音樂最初的理解。經(jīng)歷了多次重組之后。樂隊在音樂上的定位卻始終飄忽。在過去和將來之間搖擺不定——是搖滾的力量， 還是古典的精致？終于，在2005年，樂隊找到自己的方向——從此不曾改變。7個全新愛著音樂的人找到了彼此。如今的終審樂隊成員分別來自前“兩德”(Specki T.D., Micha和Oli來自阿爾卑斯山下的巴伐利亞，Benni Cellini, M.Stolz和Holly d.依舊常年守在德累斯頓)，來自柏林的主音Holly，三年前搬到了博斯普魯斯海峽附近，如今生活在伊斯坦布爾。音樂也不斷展示著它的強(qiáng)大，它消除了空間上的距離，相隔萬里的人在精神和心靈上依舊聚在一起。

Part of the ?Mittlealter' rock movement in nineties and beyond Germany, Letzte Instanz managed to survive a great many membership changes whilst holding onto their rabid fanbase over the years. The group first saw the light of day in the eastern German city of Dresden in 1996. As stated above, the band went through many players, but the founders of Letzte were Hörbi, Tin Whistle, Muttis Stolz, Kaspar Wichman, Holly D., and Markus G-Punkt. The sextet released their first album, Brachialromantik, in 1998, just after the departure of vocalist Hörbi. Robin Sohn took over vocals, and the band soldiered on, recording and releasing their follow up, Das Spiel in 1999. The first bass player to fall from the ranks, Kaspar Wichman, made his departure at this time, and Rasta F. took over the vacancy. 2001 and 2002 were fairly uneventful for the band, save the release of 2001's Kalter Glanz, but in 2003, Letzte Instanz hit more bumps in the proverbial road. The addition of guitarist Oli was offset by the replacement of Rasta F. by bassist FX, and Markus G-Punkt vacated the drumstool -- he would be replaced by Specki T.D. In September of that year, the band released their next album, Götter Auf Abruf, which managed to get Letzte Instanz into the German charts for the first time. The following year saw the group releasing a live CD and DVD, but it also marked the year that three more members decided to leave the fold. Robin Sohn, Tin Whistle, and FX all left, to be replaced at the end of the year by Holly on vocals and Michael Ende on bass. Tin Whistle's vacancy was left open, but the band did add to the roster by including string players M. Stolz on violin and Benni Cellini on cello. 2005 was the year that the new Letze Instanz -- for the most part -- made its live debut, and the band released two further albums in 2006 and 2007, Ins Licht and Wir Sind Gold.
