Spanning from 1937 to the post-war era, The Eagle’s Nest chronicles the brutal construction and ultimate humiliation of the Nazi regime’s 6,000-foot-high Alpine fortress known as “Kehlsteinhaus”.

Through the eyes of local Bavarian workers and cynical villagers, the narrative highlights the sheer stupidity and cruelty of the project. While the Wehrmacht plunged Europe into World War II and the SS planned global domination, thousands of laborers were freezing to death, blowing up solid mountain rock, and installing million-dollar golden elevators just so a dictator—who was famously terrified of heights—could have a scenic place to drink tea.

The album traces the timeline from the initial forced labor, through the delusions of the Nazi High Command, all the way to the American 101st Airborne’s arrival, ending with the ultimate irony: the invincible thousand-year fortress surviving as a tacky tourist trap.

To capture the jarring clash between peaceful Alpine life and the crushing machinery of war, the album pioneers a experimental, highly historical and satirical new subgenre: Bavarian Yodeling Industrial Metal.
