In 2007, the band announced the release of a career-spanning retrospective called "Don't look back", to be accompanied by a tour. Following the completion of that tour in late August 2008, the group entered an indefinite hiatus.
The brothers Wingenfelder reformed as Wingenfelder & Wingenfelder and have released three albums and a b-sides album, with plans record a fourth in 2017. Rainer Schumann released a solo album under the name Schumann. Christof Stein formed Wohnraumhelden and has released three albums under that name.
In 2016, the band reformed for their 30th anniversary, and released a new track. Additional new tracks were included in the band's new retrospective "30 - The Ultimate Best Of Collection."

Around my World in 80 Days
Fury In The Slaughterhouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you want to get in
I guess that I should tell you
That there's just one thing
Just a little journey, I have to send you on
Just to figure out
Where I'm coming from
And where you do belong
Around my world in 80 days
Maybe more if it pays
Around my love, my evil ways
Around my head in 80 days
Discover dungeons of despair
That is what you have to share
If you walk this way with me
But our love will make us free
Might be that you'll like it
Could be that you're shocked
But don't hesitate to open doors
That seem locked
Maybe you'll find fear
Maybe you'll see clear
Maybe you'll find an open heart
So sincere
That want's you to be near
Around my world in 80 days...
The lyrics to Fury In The Slaughterhouse's song "Around my World in 80 Days" are about embarking on a journey with someone, but warning them that there may be some difficult times ahead. The singer suggests that this journey is necessary for the other person to understand where the singer is coming from and where they fit into their world. The chorus references Jules Verne's famous novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days," where the main character embarks on a journey to circumnavigate the world in 80 days. The singer twists this concept to make it about exploring the various aspects of their world and their love.
The verses suggest that there may be obstacles the other person will face on this journey, such as discovering "dungeons of despair," but that their love will make them free. The singer encourages the other person not to be afraid of opening doors that seem locked and to be open to the journey in order to find an "open heart" that wants them to be near. Overall, the song is about the ups and downs of a relationship and how embarking on a journey together can help strengthen the bond between two people.
Line by Line Meaning
And now we've finally reached the point
We have arrived at a crucial moment in our relationship
And you want to get in
You want to be a part of my life and my world
I guess that I should tell you
It is necessary for me to explain something to you
That there's just one thing
There is only one thing you need to do
Just a little journey, I have to send you on
You must go on a short expedition to understand me better
Just to figure out
To determine
Where I'm coming from
My background and my past experiences
And where you do belong
Where your place is in my life and my world
Around my world in 80 days
Experience my world with me at different places over a period of time
Maybe more if it pays
We might need to take more time if it is profitable
Around my love, my evil ways
You will navigate through my love and evil tendencies
Around my head in 80 days
Explore through my thoughts and emotions during this time together
Discover dungeons of despair
You may face difficult and demoralizing situations
That is what you have to share
These experiences are what we will have in common
If you walk this way with me
If you choose to accompany me in this journey
But our love will make us free
Our love for each other will bring us freedom from negative experiences
Might be that you'll like it
You may enjoy this journey
Could be that you're shocked
You might be surprised by some things you encounter
But don't hesitate to open doors
Do not be afraid to explore opportunities
That seem locked
Even if it appears difficult or impossible to do so
Maybe you'll find fear
You may come across fear in this journey
Maybe you'll see clear
Perhaps you will gain clear understanding and insight
Maybe you'll find an open heart
You may find someone with an open and honest heart
So sincere
Genuine and truthful
That want's you to be near
Who desires to be close to you
