Neun Welten - Story

Neun Welten have been a distinctive force in the international dark folk scene for more than two decades. Emerging from Leipzig, Germany, they first drew attention with their debut mini-album Valg (2004) and their acclaimed first full-length, Vergessene Pfade (2006). Since the release of Destrunken (2009), Neun Welten have established themselves as one of the defining acts of the genre.

Originally rooted in acoustic, predominantly instrumental compositions, the band radically expanded their sonic palette with their third studio album, The Sea I’m Diving In (2017). The album earned Neun Welten an international following and led to numerous performances across Europe, culminating in a headline tour of China in 2020.
