Unheilig - Gothic Grooves

July 13, 2013

The man behind the Goth-Rock project Unheilig refuses to reveal his real name, and is known simply as "Der Graf” or "The Count.” He prefers to let his songs do the talking. The Goth-Rock project’s recipe for success is not as mysterious as the singer - a marriage of thoughtful lyrics with dark, brooding melodies.

That trademark style has made Unheilig a regular chart-topper in Germany and Austria - and also popular at funerals.
