BEYOND THE BLACK Release New Single "Dancing In The Dark"

Today BEYOND THE BLACK releases their fourth and last single “Dancing In The Dark”, before the album drops on January 13th. With “Dancing In The Dark”, the band delivers the perfect anthem to leave the past behind and welcome new things in your life.

Jennifer Haben comments: “Dancing In The Dark is about taking the choice to not give in when it‘s getting tough, and to fight for yourself! The song shows yet another musical dimension of the upcoming album and comes with memories of an amazing European tour, where it became a fan favorite!“

German symphonic metal shooting stars BEYOND THE BLACK look back on a stratospheric success story. Already their 2015 debut album hit like a bomb in their home country. “Songs Of Love And Death” besieged the German Top 15 for weeks and lead up to the band being awarded the Metal Hammer Award 2015 for “Best Debut”. Its successor “Lost In Forever” (2016) entered the German charts at #4 right away and paved the way for a huge tour from Germany over countries like the UK, Russia, and Japan. Since the band’s live debut in 2014, they have played the world’s biggest metal festival Wacken Open Air several times and toured as a support act for heavyweights such as AEROSMITH, KORN, SCORPIONS, SAXON, or WITHIN TEMPTATION.

During the campaign for their third record Heart Of the Hurricane (2018), BEYOND THE BLACK landed their first ever European headline tour, which took them across 10 countries, with most dates selling out.

Before they’d even finished the Heart Of the Hurricane touring cycle, BEYOND THE BLACK had already gone back to the studio to write and record album number four. The result was Horizons, released in June 2020, which entered the German album charts at #3 (CH #6, AT #16, BE #53) marking the band’s most successful album release to date.

Now, two years later, BEYOND THE BLACK are back to launch a new chapter. Following the release of recently highly acclaimed tracks “Reincarnation” and “Is There Anybody Out There”, the band are proud to announce their new, fifth studio album – the self-titled “Beyond the Black” will drop on January 13th 2023.

Jennifer Haben comments: “Many changes happened in the world and behind the scenes during the making of this album. We were confronted by our innermost fears and hopes while trying to do the right thing in turbulent times. This is what you call growth and this album gets to the heart of this process we all share: Here’s BEYOND THE BLACK and it’s gonna be yours soon!”
