blacktoothed fire up their next chapter with the explosive new single ‘ADRENALINE’, taken from their upcoming album ‘FERAL BLOOM’ being released on 15th January 2027.

‘ADRENALINE’ hits fast and cuts deep, a burst of instinct, urgency and thble heavier spirit that defines ‘FERAL BLOOM’. After months of unpredictable recording sessions, power outages and last‑minute pressure, blacktoothed channel that intensity into a song that feels feral, focused and fiercely alive.

With their new single ‘CYCLONE’, Leipzig-based modern rock outfit blacktoothed deliver one of their most emotionally charged and captivating songs to date. Blending soaring melodies, massive hooks and cinematic production, the track dives headfirst into the overwhelming force of desire, vulnerability and the chaos of emotions left unspoken.
Driven by vivid imagery of raging storms, cracking facades and spiralling thoughts, ‘CYCLONE’ captures the moment when carefully constructed defenses begin to crumble. The song explores the internal battle between restraint and emotional surrender, as suppressed feelings build into an unstoppable force. Lines like “I’m drowning in a raging cyclone that’s blasting through my chest” perfectly embody the track’s emotional intensity, while its towering chorus transforms personal turmoil into an unforgettable modern rock anthem.
Musically, blacktoothed balance raw emotion with precision songwriting. Frontman Hendrik Rathgeber’s dynamic vocal performance rises above shimmering guitars, driving rhythms and a sleek, contemporary production that amplifies every emotional peak. The result is a song that feels both deeply personal and universally relatable — a soundtrack for anyone who has ever struggled to express what they truly feel.
Over the past years, blacktoothed have established themselves as one of Germany’s most exciting modern rock acts. Since signing with Arising Empire, the Leipzig trio have steadily expanded its audience with its unique blend of alternative rock, modern metal influences and infectious pop sensibilities. The band has shared stages with renowned acts including Bad Omens, Polaris, Hands Like Houses, Annisokay, The Ghost Inside, Thundermother and The Amity Affliction, while also appearing at major events such as Impericon Festival. Their acclaimed album JULI generated more than 800,000 streams worldwide, helping cement their reputation as a rising force within the European rock scene.
With ‘CYCLONE’, blacktoothed continue to push their sound forward, combining vulnerability, power and arena-sized melodies into a song that is as emotionally devastating as it is irresistibly anthemic.

With ‘TELL ME I’M NOT ALONE’, Leipzig-based metalcore act blacktoothed dive into the fear of change, the weight of self-doubt and the painful comfort of staying stuck in familiar darkness.
Blending ethereal vocals, restless drum & bass-inspired energy and crushing modern heaviness, the band transform inner turmoil into an emotionally charged anthem that feels both deeply vulnerable and explosively cathartic.
Driven by haunting melodies and an irresistibly massive chorus, the track captures the emotional contradiction of trying to move forward while feeling terrified of what lies ahead. Lyrics like “Every step feels like losing while I’m winning” and “I’m afraid of what I create” reflect the uncertainty of growth and the struggle of leaving old versions of yourself behind. Rather than offering easy answers, blacktoothed channel those emotions into a desperate plea for connection: “Tell me I’m not alone.”
Following tours alongside The Amity Affliction, Emmure and Bad Omens, blacktoothed continue to establish themselves as one of Germany’s most compelling modern heavy acts, combining cinematic atmosphere, raw emotion and crushing intensity into a sound that resonates far beyond genre boundaries.

With ‘MONSTERS,’ blacktoothed deliver one of their most emotionally direct and introspective releases to date. Blending atmospheric modern rock with raw, honest lyricism, the track dives deep into the fear of losing yourself and the internal struggle of not becoming someone you no longer recognise.
At its core, ‘MONSTERS’ explores inner darkness, self-doubt, and the lingering weight of thoughts that refuse to fade. The song reflects on how easily reality can be distorted, how feelings can be numbed, and how internalised lies can slowly take hold. Lines like “Losing our feelings / We break what’s real” capture that quiet unraveling, while the repeated “Can’t let you turn into a monster” feels like both a warning and a desperate attempt to hold on to what’s left.
Sonically, the band expand their signature sound with a strong sense of contrast and atmosphere. Driving instrumentation and polished production meet emotional vulnerability, carried by expressive male lead vocals and haunting female backings that add depth and tension throughout the track. The result is a dynamic balance between heaviness and space, intense without losing its sense of melody.
Over the past years, blacktoothed have continuously refined their sound and identity, building a reputation for combining modern rock elements with emotional depth and strong songwriting. This steady evolution has helped them grow their audience and establish themselves as a distinctive voice within the scene.
With ‘MONSTERS,’ blacktoothed take another step forward, not just sonically but thematically. It is a song about confronting what’s inside, recognising the signs before it’s too late, and fighting to stay human in the face of everything trying to pull you under.
