Grave Digger are back, and they’re louder, heavier, and more unstoppable than ever. Celebrating 45 years of pure metal madness, the legendary German icons have dropped their 23rd studio album, Bone Collector—and it’s nothing short of a headbanger’s dream.
With Bone Collector, the band dials it back to their old-school roots, delivering raw, no-nonsense heavy metal that hits like a sledgehammer. Chris Boltendahl’s signature growl is as fierce as ever, and with new guitarist Tobi Kersting shredding his way into the lineup, the energy is fresh, fiery, and downright addictive. Tracks like the crushing title anthem “Bone Collector” immediately grab you by the throat, refusing to let go.
Produced, mixed, and mastered by Boltendahl himself, the album has an edge that feels both nostalgic and razor-sharp. Forget the complex concept albums—this is stripped-down, riff-driven metal that punches straight to the core.
Available in multiple badass formats, including limited splatter vinyl and exclusive merch bundles, Bone Collector isn’t just an album—it’s a statement. Grave Digger aren’t here to reminisce; they’re here to remind the world why they’ve been a cornerstone of metal for four and a half decades.
If you’re ready for 45 years of rage, riffs, and rebellion, get Bone Collector now and catch Grave Digger live on their epic album release tour with VICTORY.
Old-school metal never sounded this good.
