Grave Digger, undisputed legends of German heavy metal, will release their new studio album “Faces Of Pain” via Reaper Entertainment on January 15, 2027!
True to the straight-up old-school approach they showed on the previous album “Bone Collector”, recorded for their 45th anniversary, Grave Digger keep marching down the path they’ve set out! The new album is energetic, uncompromising and varied, while keeping all the trademarks of Grave Digger intact.
Chris Boltendahl, vocalist and main driving force of the band, says: “The day has finally come. With our new album “Faces of Pain” we’re opening a new, pretty wild chapter. This album is soaked in an incredible amount of heart, sweat and passion. “Faces of Pain” shows us in our most diverse light when I look back at the last years of our career. Grave Digger consistently follow our own style – a style we’ve shaped ourselves over the years. What makes it really special is that there’s not a single second where we repeat or copy ourselves, yet every song and every note carries the band’s unmistakable, characteristically mighty sound! Get ready. A true metal monster is coming!”
The album cover was created by Uwe Jarling.
In January 2027 the band will be on a German tour alongside Motorjesus and Warwolf.
More details about the new Grave Digger album, the first video and single are coming soon!
