In February 1991 Goethes Erben is formed as a group again. Mindy Kumbalek (keyboards, drums and saxophone) and Conny R. (guitars) make the trio perfect.
In this stocking they record their debut-album "Das Sterben ist ästhetisch bunt" ('Dying is aesthetically colorful') which makes the start of a triology and is published in February 1992 on the Hamburger Label DARK STAR. On this label the following albums are also published.
Short time before the release of the second album "Der Traum an die Erinnerung" ('The dream of the rememberance'), Conny R. leaves the band of her free will. Their Germany-tour in August 1992 makes the group popular in the country. Mindy Kumbalek and Oswald Henke are supported through Peter Seipt as a part-time-musician.
Until now their musical ways have changed a lot, their popularity increased, as well. They gave several concerts and tours, have had nearly 20 albums and 3 DVDs produced (not every single one was published).
Their musical genre is not easy to describe. However, they are officially classified in the "Neue Deutsche Todeskunst" ('New german art of death') genre.

Absage by Goethes Erben is the eighth and final track from their fourth studio album, which was recorded in November 1994 and released by Darkstar Records. The song is built on a minimalistic instrumental track with guitar, keyboard, and percussion highlights, creating a plaintive soundscape that enhances the song's themes of rejecting something strongly desired or needed.
The lyrics describe the painful process of shutting down one's emotions and vulnerability, and trying to distance oneself from love and companionship. The singer reveals that they have been hurt before and that abandoning their feelings feels necessary to avoid hurting themself again. Though the singer's voice remains resolute throughout the song, a tinge of sorrow and regret seems to linger in their words, hinting at the possibility that there may be some part of them that yearns for intimacy.

Ich sagte, ich werde nicht mehr kommen

Denn es gibt keinen Grund dazu
There's simply no reason for me to do so
Ich wollte mich nur noch einmal verabschieden
My intent was only to say goodbye one last time
Vielen Danke für all die Jahre voller Tränen und voller Lieder
Thank you very much for all of the years filled with tears and songs
Jetzt gehe ich und lasse alles hinter mir
Now I'm leaving and leaving everything behind me
Ich wünsche euch das Beste auf eurem weiteren Weg
I wish you all the best on your future journey
Ich bin mir sicher, es wird ohne mich weitergehen
I'm sure that things will continue without me
Ihr werdet das Leben meistern und eure Träume erfüllen

Und vielleicht, irgendwann, werden wir uns wiedersehen
And maybe, sometime in the future, we will meet again

FU Kulturzentrum Hannover! Danke Oswald für die klaren Worte, danke auch für das Statement pro Impfung. Ich denke das ist sehr wichtig da ein Teil unsere Bevölkerung anderer Meinung ist.
Ich selber freue mich auf Oberhausen....

Ich hoffe und drücke die Daumen für Berlin. 😊 Hannover nicht nachvollziehbar für mich. Es ist eine schwierige Zeit aber man muss doch das beste draus machen.

Die Antwort/Begründung vom Musikzentrum hat ein gewisses Geschmäckle, speziell wenn man betrachtet, dass die ja durchaus Veranstaltungen haben stattfinden lassen laut ihrer Facebook Seite…
