Germany’s dark metal pioneers NACHTBLUT have announced their seventh studio album, Todschick [eng: dead chic], set to be released on February 21, 2025 via Napalm Records. The quartet unveils ten new tracks, expanding their repertoire by incorporating various stylistic elements and 1980s-inspired synthesizer sounds, seamlessly blending this with their signature dark metal sound and Askeroth’s distinctive vocals.
The even more sinister and versatile offering follows their 2020’s successful album Vanitas, which reached #19 on the official German album charts. Produced by the renowned Chris Harms of Lord of the Lost, the wooden box set also includes a bonus CD with seven additional tracks, featuring collaborations with genre heavyweights – promising an extra surprise.
NACHTBLUT unveils the beautifully gloomy title track, “Todschick”, together with an eerie official music video. Like death itself, it blends catchy synths with explosive riffs, embracing the inevitability of death while redefining the beauty of darkness.
