Des Teufels Bad

Soap&Skin presents the hauntingly beautiful original score for the 2024 historical horror drama film, Des Teufels Bad (The Devil's Bath). This 10-track album, released on 23 February 2024 via Solfo, is a masterful composition that perfectly complements the film's dark and eerie atmosphere. Featuring a range of instrumentation, including the duduk, an Armenian woodwind instrument, Soap&Skin's score transports listeners to 18th century Germany, immersing them in the world of the film.

The album's 29-minute duration is a carefully crafted journey, with each track blending seamlessly into the next. From the introductory 'Mooreiche, moosige' to the final 'Maria', Soap&Skin's music is a character in its own right, adding depth and complexity to the film's narrative. The use of period-specific instrumentation adds an air of authenticity, drawing the listener into the world of the film.

As the lead actress in the film, Soap&Skin's Anja Plaschg brings a unique perspective to the composition, weaving together a soundscape that is both haunting and beautiful. The result is an album that stands alone as a work of art, while also perfectly capturing the essence of the film. With Des Teufels Bad, Soap&Skin has created a soundtrack that will leave a lasting impression on all who listen.
