Schattenmann release new album Endgegner and share video for ‘Wir sind das Ende der Welt’

Schattenmann have issued their new album ‘Endgegner’, now available through Perception. The release coincides with the start of the band’s tour, which brings the new material to venues in Germany and Austria. To accompany the album, the band also unveiled a music video for the track ‘Wir sind das Ende der Welt’

According to the band, ‘Endgegner‘ represents a deliberate move toward a more metal‑driven direction. The album was produced by Henning Verlage and marks a new chapter in the group’s development. Schattenmann previously released four studio albums, including ‘Día de Muertos‘, which earned them their first Top 10 chart entry.

The new record follows a period of stylistic evolution for the band. With ‘Endgegner’, SCHATTENMANN emphasize a heavier and more aggressive approach while continuing to refine their sound. The album features twelve tracks, including ‘Kamikaze‘, ‘Unmensch‘ and ‘Alter Ego‘

“The song is an explosive declaration of love on the edge of the apocalypse – wild, unrestrained and uncompromising. Although it begins almost like a ballad, it unfolds into a modern metal track with metalcore elements. Far removed from kitsch and clichés, it tells the story of two people who break every boundary, summon storms and stubbornly give the world the middle finger. A hurricane of passion, chaos and raw intensity that sets everything on fire.” – Frank Herzig on ‘Wir sind das Ende der Welt‘.
