"The Unity Of Two", the new album by Fuchs, is again a progressive rock concept album, this time telling the story of Aaron and Ray. Just like the book Narziss Und Goldmund, two characters from a book by the German author Herman Hesse, this story pulls at your heartstrings. It's dealing with friendship, devotion, the many layers of the human soul and different ways of life. The album mainly follows the life of Aaron, who's going out into the wide world while his friend Ray is staying at home. Later in life, both friends meet again realizing the things they have in common. It turns out that even though Aaron and Ray followed two completely different ways of life, they both have experienced true happiness and inspiration. This is called 'the unity of two.' In musical terms Fuchs has created his second album in a definitely more open and more varied style than on his debut album "Leaving Home".

Musically SHADOWBANE’s „Post Apocalyptic Power Metal“ is positioned between melodic US power metal und raw teutonic steel with dystopic lyrics. Definitely outgrown the demo sound, the mostly fast songs profit from a contemporary production – without leaving any doubt in the musical rootage within the power metal of the 80s and 90s. Besides the powerful yet melodic vocals the sound is dominated by two notable and equally shaping guitarists with a lot of thrashy riffs and harmonic melodies.
