 | Lichtmensch Hab ich schon gesehen. Fantastisches Video. Leider noch nicht die Gelegenheit gehabt, die Band selbst live zu sehen...

| Lichtmensch Herzlichen Dank! Selbiges, so scheint mir, kann ich auch von Ihnen behaupten.

 | kildare pic of the cages are about halfway down in this article: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Lamberti_(M?nster). But Sputnik will not print the u-umlaut in 'Munster' at the end. I assume your keyboard has one?

| kildare It's interesting to me because American Anabaptists are famously pacifist; I have at least one cousin who got out of going to Vietnam as a "conscientious objector." But in the beginning the sect was apparently super violent. I'm no historian, but I suspect they became pacifist after the violence of the Munster rebellion. The other protestants probably thought they were a bunch of witches, so they had to become super wimpy just to be tolerated. But I doubt they were ever tolerated in Munster!

 | "sounds pretty dark": The Muster rebels, possibly my ancestors, went berserk, ISIS-style, and tried to kill all the Catholics and Lutherans in the town. When they lost, they were publicly tortured and executed and their bodies were displayed in cages that still hang from the church that during the reformation served as reminders for Anabaptists to stay the hell out of town. They're not the same cages, but apparently they've been hanging cages from that church for the last 500 years.
