German Pagan Metal force ASENBLUT unleash their brand-new single and video “Bruderschaft” – a song born from a rare and powerful creative moment.
“Bruderschaft” was written during a weekend free of stress, filled with nights by the fire, drinks, and meaningful conversations. Out of this unique atmosphere grew a track that embodies pure willpower – a burning fire that, even after two decades, continues to blaze within music, art, and creation.
The song is a hymn to perseverance and unity: to all those who have stood with ASENBLUT side by side, as well as to those who stood against them. Every challenge, every obstacle has fuelled the band’s growth. Resistance leads to strength – and overcoming it, whether in small steps or great battles, is the path walked together: as a band, as fans, as a brotherhood.
Musically, Mate “Balrogh” Balogh delivers a fierce and anthemic composition, while lyrically Tim “Tetzel” Wagner channels two decades of struggle, triumph, and unwavering loyalty. The track’s power is sharpened and refined by the mix and master of Andrea Testori (StreetRec Studio).
“Bruderschaft” is more than just a song – it is a declaration. A celebration of resilience, loyalty, and the unbreakable bond that defines ASENBLUT and their community.
Meanwhile, the band is currently in the studio working on their upcoming new album, set for release in the second half of 2026 via Massacre Records.
o celebrate their brand new studio album “Entfesselt” in glorious style, today, melodic death metal vikings ASENBLUT are not only playing their much-awaited album release show live at Wacken Open Air (followed by many more tour dates to kick off by the end of August!), but are also premiering a brand new music video for their latest single “Nox Nostra Est”!
“Entfesselt” (german for “Unleashed”) is out now on Massacre Records,and available as CD Digipak, Ltd. Box Set, Ltd. Vinyl LP (black, silver, transparent green) and Digital formats. The boxset contains the CD Digipak, an “Asenblut” leather bracer, sticker plus autograph card. You can order the brand new ASENBLUT album right here: https://lnk.to/entfesselt
About the album closing track, “Nox Nostra Est”, ASENBLUT frontman Tetzel says: “Sometimes you must simmer in your nostalgia. You can’t change the past but learn from it. Mistakes were made and bonds were broken, but there is always another day – and the night will always belong to us. In remembrance of those who walked alongside on our paths, and to those we lost along the road. A hymn to tears and laughter, a raised glass in a dark tavern. Nox nostra est.”
Even though their new record is not a concept album per se, the album title “Entfesselt” certainly gives the direction and right impression at first glance; there is just no holding back anymore. “Entfesselt” turned out rougher, more direct and more powerful than any ASENBLUT album before! 10 tracks filled with raw energy and emotion, considering the lowest lows and celebrating the highest highs.
The songwriting was done by Balrogh in close colaboration with Tetzel, who directed the songs and wrote all the lyrics. It is no coincidence that the choruses of a lot of songs draw you in and make you sing along and pump your fist! For the sound, the band decided to go a bit more in-your-face: Big guitars, strong and harsh growls and thundering drums.
Featuring guest appearances of such as Askeroth of Nachtblut and Matthias Mente (Deliver The Galaxy), “Entfesselt” was produced, mixed and mastered by Maté Balogh, with an additional mastering by Andrea Testori at Streetrec Studio. The cover artwork was designed by Nick Greenwood.

So let’s take a step back and look at the whole picture. Look at what humanity has achieved. We conquered the sea, the lands, and the sky, even starting to shoot for the stars. Stop frowning upon what we have done to be where we are. Humanity can be awesome if we realize our potential! Together we are invincible, adaptable, and strong!“
