On their new album "Als das Licht verging" (When the light went down) Ahnenkult deals with the astrological side of Norse-germanic mythology and sets this to music. The new album represents the etymological connections between the universe and its interpretation through mythology. Furthermore it expounds its own personal interpretation. Also many well-known interpretations are reinterpreted. In this cosmic structure the sun, this the god Baldur, is considered as the center of the great whole and the origin of all being. Ahnenkult thus represent the norse mythology in a new guise.
Bandbio:

It was followed by the EPs ''Allmacht'' and ''Götterkult'' in 2014 and 2015. Works for the following album ''Als das Licht verging'' began in 2012 and were completed this year. The songs were recorded, mixed and mastered at ''Nahetal Klangschmiede''-studios.
