Currently on Tour with EISBRECHER + New Headlining Dates just announced!
While they are currently on tour with EISBRECHER ( find all gigs listed below, including just announced headlining dates! ), industrial dark rock and metal act, SCHATTENMANN, is gearing up for the release of their hotly-anticipated, forthcoming album! Día de Muertos, the band’s fourth studio offering, is due out on June 30, 2023via AFM Records, the pre-sale is available at THIS LOCATION!
Following a series of previously-released singles such as “Menschenhasser”, “Hände Hoch”, “Dickpic” or “Jeder Ist Schlecht”, now, the four-piece is presenting us a music video for their album title track! SCHATTENMANN frontman Frank Herzig comments: “For us, Día de Muertos is an absolutely life-affirming song. “We celebrate life, death and time” means seize the day, enjoy life and make the most of the time you have left.”

With their unique sound and profound music, SCHATTENMANN has become one of the most promising bands in the German metal scene. Chaos, the band’s latest, much acclaimed album (2021, AFM Records), has already seen them unmistakably showcase: SCHATTENMANN‘s sound became heavier, more metallic, more multifaceted and uncompromising in terms of content.
With Día de Muertos, SCHATTENMANN has purposefully expanded their sound to include modern and enthralling elements through the influences of metal and industrial, and their upcoming offering won’t make any exceptions. The album promises to take its listener on an even more intense journey and solidify their already strong presence in the world of heavy music!
“On ‘Día de Muertos’, you will only find songs that get straight to the point without detours. Half-hearted ideas or even filler material is sought in vain here,” Herzig recently said, who also produced and mixed the album.
“We sorted out a lot during the songwriting and kept only the very best tracks to present to the public. In this way, ten strong songs have been created that leave no questions unanswered.”
This statement is all the more true since Herzig and his three bandmates Jan Shook (guitar), Luke Shook (bass) and Nils Kinzig (drums) once again draw on the full range of content. Their credo is: “We wish, that our fans are touched by our music and take something out of it for themselves personally. We want to arouse emotions, from good mood to anger, but at the same time it can also be melancholic or thoughtful.”
