Death in Dresden began as the solo project of Maury Morfiend. The lead guitarist and co-songwriter for the band Les Poetes Maudits (the cursed poets). Shortly after releasing their first c.d., and playing some great shows, the Poetes disbanded due to conflict of interests. The new project quickly started to form from the ashes of the previous band with Maury Laying down tracks on guitar, Bass , vocals , And computer rendered sequences. The sound was very dark and moody. Focusing on the cold indifference of shattered hopes to fuel the music and lyrics. Just as the name of the project symbolizes the folly of Humankind , and our thirst to Harm one another without regret Nor discretion , sometimes Warring on the innocent and the helpless!
The first c.d. death and the game, was released in early 2001 by gaunt lush productions. Armand D. crepit joined on Bass guitar shortly after. the Disk starts out on the slower somber side of things with songs death and the game, and the cage. Then it kicks into a faster and more cynical feel, with the Clip, and Am I blind. All in all...the c.d. came out very gloom and doom! (As dubbed by Mark Splatter .of deathrock.com.) "I believe it reflects the sourest times I was going through when I was working on it... Starting out as a sort of venting tool at first, it became the vessel of Growth. (M Morfiend.)
The duo of Armand and Maury have continued to keep the band going all these years , playing some great shows and meeting the coolest people ! We’ve just finished mixing our 2nd work …
The first CD, " Death and the Game " - contains 7 rare songs
and original cover art ... just as it was when released by Mark splatter's,
" Deathrock records " in 2001!
The Long awaited “Seduced by the Night “CD is a result of years of song writing and refinement! The disk features some well known crowd pleasers such as “Silent fixation” and “Seduced by the Night”! It’s a non stop ride through 12 eclectic musical compositions and macabre and cynical lyrics which pray upon our primal fears and present the shadows we try to ignore !
Fun Fact ! the song “ Silent fixation’’ was inspired by Vincent Price’s movie House of wax !
