Decadent has been recording since late May 2014 at Double U Studio , a studio owned by bassist Fitty Vinhold and based on Ibiza . The album was mixed at Redhead Studios in Wilhelmshaven and was mastered since October 2014 at Hansen Studios ( Ribe , Denmark ). The output was a crystal clear album sound in comparison with the previous one. [2]
 | I am responsible for 95% of the tunes. "Decadent" ... includes many tunes. For me, this album is more melodic, varied and more complicated than Steelhammer. This time, we could work on four of the album. Original text (German) Zu 95 Prozent bin ich für die Melodien verantwortlich. "Decadent" ... enthält viele Melodien. Für mich ist das Album melodiöser, abwechslungsreicher und auch härter als "Steelhammer" geworden |  |
Udo Dirkschneider noted that almost everywhere his vocals were recorded the first time, and he sang intuitively. He named Words In Flames, Pain, Under Your Skin, and Decadent as his favorite songs on the album.
The album was sold by AFM Records on several media: CD , digipack (+ 2 bonus tracks), limited edition digipack in a gold box and signed by Udo Dirkschneider, limited release on double vinyl (plain and gold, each with 500 copies and with bonus tracks)
