Schandmaul – & Laura Fella (Faun) Release “Zwei Raben” + Music Video

The anticipation is high, and this Friday it’s finally here! German folk-rock powerhouse SCHANDMAUL will release their new album Sternensegler, marking their first record with Till Herence on vocals. With Sternensegler, the band is setting course for a new chapter while remaining true to themselves. SCHANDMAUL presents eleven captivating tracks in their unmistakable blend of catchy melodies and emotional depth.
 
The new single, “Zwei Raben”, released today, serves as the final preview of this new adventure. As the album’s closing track, it delivers an absolute highlight. SCHANDMAUL welcomes Laura Fella from Faun as a guest vocalist, who performs a dreamy duet with Till Herence. Both voices take center stage, complemented by minimalist instrumentation. As the lyrics fade, SCHANDMAUL launch into a nearly four-minute guitar solo, allowing the track to breathe and bringing the album to a fitting close.
 
SCHANDMAUL comment:          
“With this new version of ‘2 Raben,’ we’ve come full circle. The song was originally released on WETO’s album Schattenspieler in 2011, which also featured Till’s voice on a few tracks for the first time. Now, with the wonderful Laura Fella from Faun joining us on vocals, this duet delivers goosebumps in the form of an epic folk-rock ballad.”

Led by their valiant captain, Thomas Lindner, the German outfit rises from the rough sea convincingly and make for calmer, sparkling waters. Expanded by longtime companion Till Herence, the crew works together seamlessly on Sternensegler, turning the album itself into the guiding star for their new direction.
 
SCHANDMAUL about the new album:  
“Our Sternensegler rises powerfully like a phoenix from the ashes—and that same strength is reflected in these new songs. They symbolize rebirth and are a sign of unity and friendship. That’s how you deal with setbacks. Giving up was never an option for us. Let’s look ahead and set sail for new horizons!”
