Elder have announced their new studio album “Through Zero,” set to drop on May 29, 2026 via Stickman Records in Europe and Blues Funeral Recordings in the United States. The first single and album pre-orders will be up at the end of March.
Recorded at Big Snuff Studios in Berlin over a few months between tours in 2025, “Through Zero” is the first album the band have produced entirely on their own. The mixing was done together with Richard Behrens. Mastered by Carl Saff, the record feels more than ever like the full realization of what the band set out to create.
Elder were formed in 2006 in a small coastal town in Massachusetts by three longtime friends who were hooked on downtuned heavy music. Over the years the band picked up a guitarist, lost a drummer, relocated (mostly) from the US to Germany, played hundreds of shows everywhere from tiny clubs to arenas around the world, and put out six full-length albums, four EPs and two live albums.
You can catch Elder live at this year’s edition of Tolminator festival in Tolmin, where they’ll play on July 25, 2026.
The tracklist for “Through Zero” looks like this:
1. Sigil To Ruin
2. Capture/Release

4. Strata
5. Sight Unseen
6. Blighted Age
