Unheilig

Unheilig (German for "Unholy") is a German band that features a variety of influences including various pop and electronic styles as well as harder, nihilistic hard rock. In 1999, together with Grant Stevens and José Alvarez-Brill (also of Wolfsheim, Joachim Witt, and De/Vision), the foundation for Unheilig came into being from a dark vision of singer Der Graf (born Bernd Heinrich Graf). Their songs have fused heavy guitars, dancable beats, and infectious synth-driven melodies with Der Graf's brooding croon and have met with considerable success. The band principally consists of Der Graf ("The Count") along with various musical partners. He has been accompanied for live shows with musicians Christoph "Licky" Termühlen, Henning Verlage, and Martin "Potti" Potthoff. The group's debut, 'Phosphor', came out in 2001. Their fans believe that their eclectic style features a very appealing combination of sounds, unlike a lot of bands that play a similar mix of elements, while also giving a nice depth of atmosphere. As well, Unheilg are stylistically connected to the 'dark culture' that has arisen among many of the youth.
