Symphonic metal sensation BEYOND THE BLACK are happy to share the fifth single from their eagerly awaited upcoming studio album, Break The Silence, which is due to be released on January 9th, 2026 via Nuclear Blast Records.
The deeply emotional song ‚Ravens‚ focuses on unity, loyalty and resilience. Rising together through darkness, bound by shared spirit and freedom, symbolized by ravens soaring high. Both the song and the video feature guest appearances & contributions by BEYOND THE BLACK fans, further underlining one of the core themes of the album: overcoming interpersonal communication barriers and connecting people.
Singer Jennifer Haben commented:
“‘Ravens’ is about belonging — about finding light in others when everything feels disconnected. Hearing our fans’ voices on this song made that message real in the most beautiful way.“
„This song was created with our fans at its heart. A very special thank you to you, our RAVENS, for being part of recording this song and bringing it to life with us.„
BEYOND THE BLACK’s sixth full length Break The Silence is a concept album rooted in melodic metal with ethno influences, it explores themes of communication, inner strength, resilience and the urgent need to reconnect in a divided world. Tracks like ‚Let There Be Rain‘, ‚(La Vie Est Un) Cinéma‚, ‚Ravens‚ and ‚The Flood‚ examine how words – and their absence – shape our reality. It’s an emotional, multi-layered experience that mirrors today’s complex world and invites fans to be part of this new chapter.
