Poetry (2010)

This course is an introduction to the major texts of Western culture. Ranging from antiquity to the present, it places special emphasis on several of literature's most important aspects: The uniqueness of literary language, The formal and generic conventions of literary production, The position that literature occupies as a site for historical and ideological forces and conflicts, The continuing human significance of the great works of the past and the present. All too often, people fail to give the great books the attention they deserve. They might feel locked out of these masterpieces because they believe themselves unequipped to savor their richness. Or they might feel that great literature has only some antiquarian or museum value.

"'Poetry For The Poisoned' is a mix of progressive elements, modern rock, dark arts and also power metal," states Youngblood. "It comes at a time where many people around the world are searching for something to grab on to spiritually, including myself. I recently lost my mother and to be honest it was very hard on me. So there are some melancholy moods reflected on this album."

Dead Poetry was founded in spring 2006 in the near of Nordhausen, quite in the middle of Germany. At that time still with a guy at the keyboard, we played some kind of homogenous compositions between death- and trashmetal influences and parts, more inspired by classical music and dominated by the keys. Most of us played in other bands before and so the songwriting process progressed quite fast. Fortunately, in summer 2006, we had the opportunity to record our first album.
