German Folk Metal band Subway To Sally have announced their 15th studio album, Post Mortem, set to be released on December 20, 2024 via Napalm Records. The first single, title track “Post Mortem”, reflects “the spirit of the band: despite all obstacles and the notion of mortality, life is celebrated.”
The title track has lyrics that” invite the Grim Reaper to join at the table and face life’s challenges with a wink.” Thereby the band “calls on listeners to embrace the unknown and make the best out of the time we are given.”
The band says about the title track:
Some songs write themselves. Our band has been around for thirty years; we’ve been through thick and thin together! Death has knocked on our door several times, at least metaphorically speaking. COVID, then our resurgence with the last album Himmelfahrt: we’re simply not to be silenced and nowhere near quiet yet – folk, rock, raw, defiant, and unmistakably SUBWAY TO SALLY; that’s the song ‘Post Mortem.’
They add about the upcoming album:
In this world of contradictions and changes, finding a voice seems difficult. But upon closer inspection, one finds parallels in history and art. What do Putin and Nero, Oppenheimer and Prometheus have in common? What rises from the ashes of Rome? Does history truly repeat itself – once as tragedy, the other time as farce?
