02.01.2022 This week in 1983, XMAL DEUTSCHLAND released the single, INCUBUS SUCCUBUS III on 4AD records, (September 1983). Magnificently creepy, INCUBUS SUCCUBUS was cold,... claustrophobic and pure gothic fury. A big club hit, this nihilistic onslaught would entice one to the dancefloor then swallow them whole. Accompanied by crackling, swirling undercurrent of synth, Xmal Deutschland achieved something between warmth and cold their power was in just this. The tuneful and captivating whirls of the organ merged exactly with Anya Huwe's guttural exclamations. 1983’s 'Fetisch' and the creative highpoint that was 1984’s brilliant 'Tocsin' had their roots based firmly in the vitality of punk; and the expansion within that idiom in terms of its range of feeling and expression moved it in roughly the same direction as some of the then post-punk groups. However, its creators, Xmal, just like the Banshees, stood in a field of their own - a veil of mystique, lifted their sound above categorisation.
