Chart-topping German symphonic metal icons XANDRIA will release their new studio album, Eclipse, on August 7, 2026, via Napalm Records. Featuring 11 tracks, Eclipse represents the most diverse body of work in the band's discography so far. Classic, '80s-inspired metal riffs stand alongside low-tuned modern metal guitars, while cinematic soundscapes meet Celtic folk influences. Dark electronic elements blend with intimate rock moments, even including a guitar solo that owes more to Pink Floyd than to any metal genre. Eclipse marks XANDRIA’s most outspoken and cinematic album to date: a dark, colorful, and defiant statement for reason, empathy, and democracy in times when all three are under attack, brought to life by a band fueled with new energy, new ambitions, and a clear artistic direction. “No more songs without a voice that counts” — from The Last Generation.
