DOMINUM unleash the zombie apocalypse with their new album, The Dead Don’t Die, out today! Alongside this top-notch horror story, Dr. Dead and his horde of undead provide necessary survival skills with their blistering new single and official music video for “Don’t Get Bitten By The Wrong Ones”.

With a fusion of catchy riffs, haunting lyrics from the grave, and unrelenting energy, this track takes listeners on an unholy journey through fear, survival and a world overrun by the undead. Lyrically gripping, “Don’t Get Bitten By The Wrong Ones” paints a bleak yet adrenaline-fueled picture of isolation and mistrust in a collapsing society. Themes of resilience and primal instinct drive the chorus as the band warns against the dangers lurking in the shadows.

Frontman Dr. Dead delivers a commanding vocal performance, blending raw emotion with DOMINUM’s signature apocalyptic soundscape. The band’s relentless rhythm section and crushing guitar work channel the chaos of a world on the brink of doom.

Dr. Dead on the new single “Don’t Get Bitten By The Wrong Ones”:
“So here we are – a year has passed, and the story continues to unfold. No matter what challenges arise, this journey remains unstoppable. As we close this chapter, I want to share a mantra that has guided me through the highs and lows of the past year. It’s a simple truth, but a powerful one. It has shaped my path, and I believe it can shape yours too. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Don’t Get Bitten by the Wrong Ones.”
Yours truly,
Dr. Dead

DOMINUM on the new album The Dead Don’t Die:
“Hey, living people. Exactly one year ago, our journey began, and now it’s time for a new chapter. In the darkest nights, I buried my fallen zombies and brought them back to life under the full moon. But the real story is still to come. Stay calm, stay close (forever—pun intended), and I’ll tell you everything soon. Just remember one thing: the dead don’t really die.”
Yours,
Dr. Dead

DOMINUM entered the scene in 2023 with a blast and hit the top 20 of the Official German Album Charts immediately with their debut album, Hey Living People.

Massive album opening track “We Are Forlorn” invites the listener on a dark and dramatic journey that continues full-speed on “One Of Us”. The monumental title track “The Dead Don’t Die” is another highlight on The Dead Don’t Die – a clever take on a classic children’s lullaby leads into brilliantly dark storytelling, which heavy instrumentation and a multifaceted vocal performance take to the next level. Feuerschwanz and dArtagnan mastermind Ben Metzner are featured on this song. In addition to the album’s 10 original tracks, DOMINUM continues delivering the exciting cover of Scorpions’ classic hit “Rock You Like A Hurricane”. Some formats come with the bonus CD Live at Graspop Metal Meeting 2024 which includes their acclaimed performance at Graspop 2024.

NAPALM RECORDS

Zombie metal band DOMINUM unveil their new single, “We Are Forlorn”, offering the next taste of their upcoming second album, The Dead Don’t Die, out December 27, 2024 via Napalm Records! The album’s massive opening track invites the listener on a dark and dramatic journey, underlining the heavier metal influences that Dr. Dead and his Zombies introduce on their second full-length – contributing to an even more bombastic and darker sound than on their debut.      

“We Are Forlorn” sets the perfect tone for a sinister atmosphere to run shivers down one’s spine. It’s accented by trenchant riffing, thundering drums and a matchless vocal performance by Dr. Dead. Together with a visually palpable official music video, “We Are Forlorn” marks a standout offering, yet only a preview for what’s to come when DOMINUM evoke the zombie apocalypse at the end of the year with The Dead Don’t Die!      

Dr. Dead on the new single “We Are Forlorn”:
“Something wicked has awakened. My zombies are more dangerous, more terrifying, and filled with new power. But their transformation didn’t come easily – under the cloak of midnight, in a secret graveyard, a ritual of shadows took place. A single touch of the secret elixir, and they buried themselves anew… What happened next? You’ll have to see it for yourself.
“We Are Forlorn”! A name that echoes darkness, but at its heart, it’s about standing together. “We Are Forlorn” – yet we rise united.

DOMINUM on the upcoming album The Dead Don’t Die:
“Hey, living people. Exactly one year ago, our journey began, and now it’s time for a new chapter. In the darkest nights, I buried my fallen zombies and brought them back to life under the full moon. But the real story is still to come. Stay calm, stay close (forever – pun intended), and I’ll tell you everything soon. Just remember one thing: the dead don’t really die.”
Yours,
Dr. Dead

DOMINUM entered the scene in 2023 with a blast and hit the top 20 on the Official German Album Charts immediately with their debut album, Hey Living People. The band’s second full-length album, The Dead Don’t Die, tops its strong predecessor in maturity, production and songwriting, and is once again mixed and mastered by the brilliant Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Arch Enemy, Evergrey & more).

The opening anthem “We Are Forlorn” sets the stage for what’s to come, while DOMINUM continue with full-speed on “One Of Us” shortly after. The monumental title track “The Dead Don’t Die” is another highlight on The Dead Don’t Die – a clever take on a classic children’s lullaby leads into brilliantly dark storytelling, which heavy instrumentation and a multifaceted vocal performance take to the next level. Feuerschwanz and dArtagnan mastermind Ben Metzner are featured on this song.

Rising German power metal band DOMINUM have released an official post-release music video for their delicious song, “We All Taste The Same”! Cut from DOMINUM’s debut album, Hey Living People, released in late 2023 (and which entered the Official German Album Charts), the track’s theatrical atmosphere shines through the new music video by Witzki Visions.
 
DOMINUM is currently in the middle of a full European tour with Feuerschwanz and Orden Ogan, with many of the 20+ shows already completely sold out. In June, the band will join legendary Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson on his German solo dates – majority of the tickets for the tour are also already gone, so get yours fast. Check out the dramatic music video for “We All Taste The Same” below and order your copy of Hey Living People now if you haven’t yet!
 
Dr. Dead on “We All Taste The Same”:
“Hey, Living People, we’re living in a world where everyone tells you it doesn’t matter where you come from, what you wear, or what color your skin is. But you know as well as I do – it really DOES matter. This is where my beautiful zombies come to play – they couldn’t care less – they’ll eat you up anyway because – WE ALL TASTE THE SAME“

The hottest rising power metal band in recent years, DOMINUM, will release their debut album, Hey Living People, on December 29, 2023 via Napalm Records! Led by songwriter and producer Felix Heldt (Feuerschwanz, Visions Of Atlantis and more) on vocals in the character of Dr Dead, the band takes the living into the world of the undead – telling stories of zombies, survival and insatiable hunger for more, creating their own intense and captivating reality.

Fantastic storytelling, genius songwriting and a high level of musicianship are the core of DOMINUM, which is evident on their 13-track first offering that combines the energy of metal with the drama and narration of horror movies. Opening track “Immortalis Dominum” sets the scene with an eerie intro that builds into a flamboyant chorus. Massive power metal track “Danger Danger” convinces with its skillful instrumentation and storyline through bombastic vocals. Title track “Hey Living People” is a catchy future hit song, fit for both rock radio and huge festival stages. DOMINUM’s first standalone single, “Patient Zero”, features a high-quality music video by 360 Grad Design (Rammstein, Peter Maffay, Within Temptation & many more) that resembles a horror movie. Featuring sharp solos and singalong choruses on tracks like “Cannibal Corpses” and “Better Shoot Yourself” and playful lyrics on songs like “We All Taste The Same”, Hey Living People is sure to entertain. On top of their original songs, DOMINUM also serves epic “zombie metal versions” of three well-known tracks: legendary mid-80s hit “You Spin me Round (Like a Record)” originally by Dead Or Alive, Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and Australian rock band Midnight Oil’s “Beds are Burning”.

Hey Living People is produced by bandleader and main songwriter Felix Heldt and recorded in collaboration with Jacob Hansen (Amaranthe, Arch Enemy, Katatonia, Delain, Evergrey among other significant metal bands), who also mixed and mastered the album.

Zombie metal unit DOMINUM honor the 40th anniversary of one of Scorpions’ biggest hits, “Rock You Like A Hurricane”, by giving the iconic heavy metal track a symphonic metal makeover with their epic cover version! The up-and-coming unit released their highly acclaimed debut album, Hey Living People, at the end of 2023, entering the Official German Album Charts.
 
DOMINUM finished 2023 strong with a tour with Die Apokalyptischen Reiter and Equilibrium, and is currently supporting Peyton Parrish on his already partially sold-out European tour. This spring, the band will also join Feuerschwanz and Orden Ogan on another fast-selling tour. Check out DOMINUM’s cover of “Rock You Like A Hurricane” below!

Dr. Dead on “Rock You Like A Hurricane”:
“My zombies and I are thrilled by the positive response to our first record, Hey Living People. In appreciation, we’re sharing an unreleased song we’ve been working on since our tour last December.  As devoted fans of the legendary “Scorpions” and with this year proving to be a turbulent one for all of us, we decided to unveil our version of “Rock You Like A Hurricane.”
 
This February marks the 40th birthday of the very song, and with our rendition, we pay homage to those legends, expressing our deepest respect. Thank you for your music.
 
Currently, we’re on tour with Peyton Parrish, spreading the zombie spirit across Europe. Who knows, maybe we’ll bring a hurricane your way too? Let’s wait and see! “
