In the video for "Dark Horizon" Ashanti Šabić really gets going. Just as you would expect from the singer of a metal band, since Doro Pesch sang in a leather bodice at the front of the Düsseldorf band "Warlock". Her voice sounds confident and sensual. No question, you have to be able to rock out like Šabić at the age of 19. And yet you would As it rains not fair as a band if you reduce their music to...

Arthur Schnitzler and Gustav Mahler are rising from the dead, and you can't get past Sigmund Freud on an evening about Vienna around 1900.
