Rulaman stands for floating, psychedelic soundscapes, woven from an earthy and analogue sound. Founded in 2015, they quickly celebrated local success under the name The Hace. At that time still as a quartet, they played everywhere they could – and the audience grew steadily. After a successful crowdfunding campaign, they released their EP Peacemaker in 2019. Shortly after, Lukas Neubert left the band and was replaced by Nils Kunze, who, together with Joel Büttner on bass, forms the groovy foundation for Rulaman‘s sound. After a turbulent start in 2020, the band began to reflect on their work, which prompted them to change the line-up from a quartet to a trio. Under the new name Rulaman and with vocals now in the hands of guitarist Felix Berns, the band set to work writing new material. With their self-titled EP (2021), the band released a concept EP for the first time, taking their listeners on a journey through forest, desert, swamp and their own minds. In 2023, the first album To Serve The Dune was released via Tonzonen Records. The album’s idiosyncratic sound was extremely well received by both the press and fans, garnering much praise. After two years of creating, writing and composing, the second album Death Whistle is ready to be released. The current sound is dark, combining doom, stoner and classic rock. Heavy riffs that are easy on the ear, brutal basses followed by dancing percussions. Lyrically, Rulaman explore the depths of human existence and the lure of false promises. In the search for happiness and belonging, the promises of unscrupulous sects and cults sound all too tempting. Everything you think is true is questioned. Do I know myself? Do I really know the people around me? Isn’t it easier to sacrifice yourself completely for the common good and give up on yourself? Until the mind and everything around it has dried up.
