In 2005, Heimataerde was signed by Metropolis Records, and their album, Gotteskrieger, was released by the label in April. The album is state of the art harsh EBM/industrial with beats designed to take the underground dance floors by storm. While musically Heimataerde is much in the vein of legendary dark EBM acts like older Wumpscut and Suicide Commando, the music does have its own unique identity, and a modern, up to date sound. With tracks like "Gib Mir" and "Ich Hab Die Nacht Getraeumet" already taking over the dance floors all over the world, Heimataerde has already laid the groundwork for its club invasion.
In August 2006, the next album, Kadavergehorsam was released and ties seamlessly into Heimataerde's prior works.
In 2008, the most recent album Leben Geben Leben Nehmen was released.
As of Late September 2009, there is an upcoming album "Unwesen", and trailers for the album can be seen at http://www.myspace.com/heimataerde
Dark Dance
Heimataerde Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Du kannst es spüren, du kannst es sehen
Ich werde eins, gehör zu dir
Kein Gott, neben mir
Kannst du den Rhythmus spüren
Die Schritte, die zum Ziele führen
Gib all dein Leid, erlern die Kunst
Dark Dance
Tänzer in der Nacht
Dark Dance
Willst du in der Dunkelheit bestehen
Du kannst es spüren, du kannst es sehen
Sei ein Schatten, ein Teil der Nacht
Den Tod gebracht
Vergangen ward die Lebenszeit
Der Hass verbannt die Menschlichkeit
Vertreibt den Rest, was bleibt in dir
Der Tanz , das Tier
The lyrics to Heimataerde's song "Dark Dance" portray a sense of belonging and identity that can be achieved through immersion and participation in a group's dance. The opening lines propose the idea of getting lost in the crowd and becoming one with the masses. The singer asserts that he belongs to the community and that there is no other god beside him. This suggests that the group is an authoritative force, and the individual performing the dance must obey its rules and conform to its beliefs to be a part of it.
The second verse stresses the importance of embracing the darkness and becoming a part of it to excel in the dark dance. The lyrics suggest that one would have to leave their past behind and embrace their shadow to be a part of the group. The dancers should give up their grief and learn the art of the dance, becoming Legion and dancing with the rest of the group. The last verse talks about how the dance represents the animalistic aspects of human nature and suppresses the remaining good in people. It symbolizes an escape from the realities of existence and replacing rationality with instinct.
