Elisa Giulia Teschner comments: “Words will never be enough to express how grateful I am to finally share these songs with you.
When I look back, it’s been a long and winding journey to reach this point. There were countless moments when I wasn’t sure how to carry it all alone – but giving up was never an option. Music has always been the one constant, and I’ve worked hard, quietly and relentlessly, to keep it alive.
Still, »Umbra« wouldn’t exist without you. Through your support and belief – especially everyone who contributed to the crowdfunding – this album became real.
And today, Umbra is finally yours.
I’ve cried, laughed, and danced with these songs – they’ve held my silence and carried my storms.
I hope when you listen, you feel something real. I hope you find comfort in the chaos, the way I did. The world can be terrifying, but it’s also endlessly inspiring – and that’s what this album is about.”

This is »Umbra« – The shadow, the unseen, the weight beneath the light. With her second album, Ellereve descends deeper into emotional and sonic terrain – a bold evolution shaped by vulnerability, intensity, and contrast.
»Umbra« is a record of duality: fragile yet forceful, introspective yet eruptive. It weaves together a rich palette of genres – from ethereal atmospheres to crushing post-metal riffs and carries a sense of tension throughout, as if always moving between collapse and clarity.
This time, the sound is heavier, darker, more defiant. Drawing from the depths of post-metal, doom, and blackened textures, Ellereve explores the complexity of emotion without ever losing the haunting, cinematic essence that defines her musical identity. An unexpected shift, perhaps – but one that feels necessary. »Umbra« doesn’t just follow a path. It carves one.
»Umbra« was recorded & produced together with Salomon Appiah, with mix and mastering duties handled by Markus Stock at Klangschmiede Studio E.
