SCHATTENMANN usher in the new year with the release of “Endgegner”, the title track from their upcoming studio album. The song signals a decisive next step for the band and sets the tone for a new chapter in their musical journey.

With “Endgegner” [German for “Final Boss”], SCHATTENMANN present themselves sharper and more focused than ever. The track blends German-language metal with pronounced core elements, driven rhythms, and an unapologetic attitude. Crushing riffs, a powerful groove, and a commanding chorus turn the song into a statement piece that reflects both intensity and confidence.

As frontman Frank Herzig reveals:
“This song was my ultimate final boss! Never before has a track driven me so crazy, challenged me so much, and demanded so much from me. In the entire history of Schattenmann, there hasn’t been a song that required so many versions and attempts. In the end, I am incredibly proud of it, especially because the path to the finished song was so rocky and because it offers so much both musically and lyrically. It grabs you immediately and doesn’t let go until the very end: hard, loud, emotional.”

MY INNER CHAOS Release New Single + Official Music Video “My Chaos”

Posted in industrial metal, industrial metal bands, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , on January 10, 2026 by Metal Odyssey

With this second release, the band continues its artistic journey into the darkest and most unsettling depths of industrial metal, asserting a powerful, recognizable sound identity charged with emotional tension. My Chaos is both a personal and musical manifesto, a raw exploration of the inner turmoil that resides within the human condition.

The magnetic voice of Bia Redchaos leads the listener through a spiral of fragility and strength, control and chaos, carried by a sharp, dark, and visceral sound. Every sonic passage is sculpted to convey urgency, conflict, but also awareness and determination.

Drawing influence from acts like 3Teeth, Author & Punisher, and Infected Rain, My Inner Chaos shape a distinct musical language where the intensity of riffs and the hardness of the sound blend with deep sensitivity and a cohesive artistic vision.

Listen to My Chaos on Spotify and all major digital platforms, watch the official video on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/LzO71BT8gvc?si=yrMunXfMx7EWRTp-
