Now Mart and his band return with their third album “Adamant”, which continues the success story of STAHLMANN. Beside their unique look, which quickly became a trademark, on “Adamant” STAHLMANN also present their best songwriting and arrangements so far. It’s not too different from their previous works, but it shows a matured band that is able to put together an album full of hits. Again producer Jose Alvarez Brill (a.o. Wolfsheim, Blutengel) as involved to secure the best result possible.
