ABSURD
Absurd is a pagan/black metal band from Germany. It was founded in Sondershausen by Hendrik Möbus and Sebastian Schauseil the 2’nd of January 1992, with the third member Andreas Kirchner joining them later on. Ronald ‘Wolf’ Möbus, Sebastian ‘DMD’ Schauseil, and Hendrik ‘JFN’ Möbus decided to respond to the New Wave of Black Metal with a band of their own. The choice of the band’s name is apocryphal and is open to multiple interpretations. It is thought correct to assume an interrelation between the band name and one of the pastimes of the band members at this time; watching poorly produced, though hilarious horror B-movies.
The trio who were as young as 16 and not older than 19 years old, managed to record a promo, “God’s Death”, in June 1992. Absurd frequented a rehearsal place in the communal youth centre, and soon Sebastian ‘DMD’ managed to stock the local YMCA with juvenile outbursts of ‘Satanism’ and ‘Honor fantasies’. When Punk Rock bands, who also rehearsed in the youth centre, incited a conflict with Absurd to use communal property and equipment to further their NS and xenophobic views, the band retreated into a cabin located in dense forest outside their hometown. Meanwhile, Wolf assumed the role of manager and a new member to the band. In late 1992, Absurd recorded the ‘Death From the Forest’ demo, and the band was subsequently reduced to a duo consisting of Sebastian ‘DMD’ and Hendrik ‘JFN’. The two recorded “God’s Deathful Sadness” split demo in March 1993. Barely a month after, an adolescent strife between Sebastian ‘DMD’ and a fifteen-year old ended with the death of the youth. Sebastian ‘DMD’ and Hendrik ‘JFN’ were sent to youth detention center to serve a maximum of eight years respectively.
