Siegfried

Siegfried is an Austrian heavy metal band founded in 1998 by Bruder Cle, alias Hagen, who was later joined by Daniel Bachmaier (ex Sarcasm Syndrome), alias Ortwin, and the former singer of Dreams of Sanity, Sandra Schleret. In 2000, they released a demo CD titled Fafnir. Later in 2000, they signed with Napalm Records and released their first album, Drachenherz, in 2001. Their second album, Eisenwinter, was released in 2003. Siegfried's lyrics are based on and inspired by the Nibelung saga. According to Sandra Schleret, as of 25 April 2008, "Siegfried is still together and working on a new album (pre-production is finished except for the vocals of two songs)." In May 2009, Siegfried recorded their third album, Nibelung, at Alex Krull's famous Mastersound studios. Nibelung was released in November 2009.
