Following the powerful response to the first single “Inferno”, DAIDALOS unveils “Dis”, one of the most dramatic and oppressive chapters of the upcoming album “Dante“. The track is accompanied by an evocative new lyric video marking an important step in the album’s unveiling and placing DAIDALOS on one of the most respected platforms in extreme music.

Where “Inferno” introduced the descent with a sense of momentum and discovery, “Dis” captures the moment where wonder transforms into dread. Fast, dark and ritualistic, the new single reflects “Dante“’s entry into the infernal City of Dis, an oppressive realm where fear becomes a deliberate tool of domination. In the track’s refrain, the faceless voice calling “Enter my fear” embodies the kind of power that preys on the frightened not to protect but to control.

Musically, “Dis” heightens the defining traits of “Dante“: monumental orchestration, dramatic tension and a fusion of symphonic black metal with melancholic undertones. The guitars, recorded and shaped by Nahuel Lozano of Mental Cruelty, cut through the orchestral mass with precision, providing the modern edge that characterizes the album’s sound. As with every composition in DAIDALOS, all orchestrations, drums, vocals and themes were written by Tobias Püschner, maintaining the project’s deeply personal identity as a one-man artistic vision.

Within the conceptual arc of the album, “Dis” stands as a crucial turning point, a descent into a darker, more suffocating level of Hell, mirroring both Dante Alighieri’s text and the political, emotional and spiritual undercurrents that shaped Tobias’ reinterpretation. The track continues to deepen the album’s central themes of doubt, despair and hidden truths between faith and fear; a soundscape described as “more melancholic than evil”, blending orchestration and harshness into one continuous dramatic vision.

For devotees of symphonic and atmospheric black metal, “Dis” resonates with the monumental orchestrations of Fleshgod Apocalypse, the dark theatricality of Dimmu Borgir and the apocalyptic scope of Septicflesh.

The new lyric video offers a visually striking gateway into this chapter of the narrative, further immersing listeners into DAIDALOS’ descent, now deeper, darker and more commanding than ever.

Daidalos Line-Up:​
Tobias Püschner; Vocals, Drums, Keyboards, Orchestrations, Songwriting, Production

About: Daidalos is the brainchild of German composer and multi-instrumentalist Tobias Püschner, founded in 2020 as a creative outlet merging black metal, orchestration and conceptual storytelling. What began during the isolation of the pandemic quickly evolved into a full artistic vision – a fusion of cinematic grandeur and the emotional depth of extreme metal.

The debut album “The Expedition” (2022, Rockshots Records / Extreme Metal Music) introduced Daidalos as a unique force in the symphonic black metal scene. Entirely written and performed by Püschner, the album reimagined the tragic story of the Franklin expedition through a vast and icy soundscape where atmosphere and aggression met in perfect tension. Critics praised its originality and ambition, calling it a “symphonic extreme metal masterpiece” (AMMO Underground) and “an album that captures imagination and balances beauty with intensity” (GBHBL).

Building upon that foundation, Püschner continued to refine his approach – weaving together cinematic orchestrations, classical influences and the raw intensity of black and death metal. Collaborating with Nahuel Lozano (Mental Cruelty) on guitars, recording, and production, Daidalos shaped its signature sound: monumental, dramatic and deeply emotional.

Across his work, Püschner treats music as a form of storytelling – each record conceived as a self-contained world. His compositions often explore historical, philosophical and spiritual themes portrayed through the lens of symphonic black metal and theatrical expression.

With “Dante” (2025), Daidalos reaches a new artistic chapter: not a retelling but a reinterpretation of the Divine Comedy, where doubt, despair and revelation intertwine. Yet the core remains the same – the search for meaning in darkness, expressed through meticulous orchestration, intense vocal delivery and the balance between aggression and melancholy that defines Daidalos.

For fans of: Dimmu Borgir, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Septicflesh
