ARISING EMPIRE MEDIA ALERT: Blacktoothed Drop A New Release

With their new single "WILL YOU SURVIVE WHEN I DEVOUR YOUR HEARTBEAT" arriving on August 13, Leipzig based modern metalcore trio blacktoothed reach a new level of emotional and sonic intensity. As another chapter of the band's evolving FERAL BLOOM era, the track explores the unsettling relationship between pain, repression and transformation. Here, the greatest threat is not an external force but the voice that has always existed within.

Watch the video Below:

Driven by crushing riffs, soaring melodies and emotionally charged vocal performances, "WILL YOU SURVIVE WHEN I DEVOUR YOUR HEARTBEAT" gives shape to trauma itself. The song speaks from the perspective of an inner darkness that refuses to disappear, confronting the listener with every wound they have tried to bury. Rather than glorifying suffering, blacktoothed reveal the consequences of suppressing emotional pain until it inevitably demands to be acknowledged.

Lyrics such as "I am the ringing sound inside your ear, the numbing pain you'd wish to disappear" and "Did you ever care to feel your wounds?" turn internal conflict into something almost tangible. The song builds towards its haunting central question, "Will you survive when I devour your heartbeat?" Not as a threat, but as an invitation to confront what has long been ignored. It asks how long a person can continue running from the parts of themselves they refuse to face.

The closing image of a "feral bloom inside your chest" perfectly captures the song's central message. Growth and destruction exist side by side, suggesting that true healing can only begin once buried emotions are allowed to surface. The result is a cinematic and uncompromising piece that balances crushing heaviness with striking vulnerability.

Since their formation, blacktoothed have become one of Germany's most exciting modern heavy acts, seamlessly combining metalcore, alternative rock, electronic elements and memorable hooks into a sound that is unmistakably their own. Their acclaimed releases JULI, Headway and the Antidote EP have demonstrated a band that continues to evolve while staying emotionally fearless.

The trio has shared stages with artists including Bad Omens, The Ghost Inside, The Amity Affliction, Emmure, Polaris, Wargasm, Annisokay, and Thundermother, earning a reputation for intense live performances and uncompromising songwriting. With a rapidly growing international audience and millions of streams across digital platforms, blacktoothed continue to establish themselves in the new generation of modern metal.

With "WILL YOU SURVIVE WHEN I DEVOUR YOUR HEARTBEAT", blacktoothed deliver one of their most powerful and emotionally charged songs to date. It is a relentless collision of vulnerability and aggression that perfectly embodies the spirit of FERAL BLOOM and proves once again that the band's greatest strength lies in transforming deeply personal struggles into music with universal impact.

New Release From Blacktoothed

BETWEEN SELF-DOUT AND SALVATION — BLACKTOOTHED RELEASE "TELL ME I'M NOT ALONE" 

With "TELL ME I’M NOT ALONE," Leipzig-based metalcore act blacktoothed dive into the fear of change, the weight of self-doubt, and the painful comfort of staying stuck in familiar darkness. Blending ethereal vocals, restless drum + bass-inspired energy, and crushing modern heaviness, the band transforms inner turmoil into an emotionally charged anthem that feels both deeply vulnerable and explosively cathartic.

Driven by haunting melodies and an irresistibly massive chorus, the track captures the emotional contradiction of trying to move forward while feeling terrified of what lies ahead. Lyrics like "Every step feels like losing while I'm winning" and "I'm afraid of what I create" reflect the uncertainty of growth and the struggle of leaving old versions of yourself behind. Rather than offering easy answers, blacktoothed channel those emotions into a desperate plea for connection: "Tell me I'm not alone."

Blacktoothed Return With New Single "Monsters"

With "MONSTERS," blacktoothed deliver one of their most emotionally direct and introspective releases to date. Blending atmospheric modern rock with raw, honest lyricism, the track dives deep into the fear of losing yourself and the internal struggle of not becoming someone you no longer recognize.

At its core, "MONSTERS" explores inner darkness, self-doubt, and the lingering weight of thoughts that refuse to fade. The song reflects on how easily reality can be distorted, how feelings can be numbed, and how internalized lies can slowly take hold. Lines like "Losing our feelings/We break what's real" capture that quiet unraveling, while the repeated "Can't let you turn into a monster" feels like both a warning and a desperate attempt to hold on to what's left.

Sonically, the band expands its signature sound with a strong sense of contrast and atmosphere. Driving instrumentation and polished production meet emotional vulnerability, carried by expressive male lead vocals and haunting female backings that add depth and tension throughout the track. The result is a dynamic balance between heaviness and space, intense without losing its sense of melody.

Over the past years, blacktoothed have continuously refined their sound and identity, building a reputation for combining modern rock elements with emotional depth and strong songwriting. This steady evolution has helped them grow their audience and establish themselves as a distinctive voice within the scene.

With "MONSTERS," blacktoothed take another step forward, not just sonically but thematically. It is a song about confronting what’s inside, recognizing the signs before it's too late, and fighting to stay human in the face of everything trying to pull you under.

Blacktoothed Share "Novocaine" Video

Blacktoothed have shared the video for their newest single "Novocaine," exploring the well-known sensation of being either over-or-under-challenged, leaving one in a perpetual state of discomfort. Notably, guitarist Matti showcases her vocal prowess, adding another layer of talent before the song concludes with a powerful and unexpected climax.

Watch the video below. Stream the song here.

"We've always embraced the freedom of not confining ourselves to a single genre," says the band. "Some might label it as a reflection of the heavy music scene's zeitgeist, but we believe that blending various elements together creates a truly distinctive song. 'NOVOCAINE' embodies everything we love, from captivating melodies to powerful riffs and infectious beats. And let's not forget the explosive and remarkably heavy ending, which pushes our tuning to uncharted territories. It's even experimental for our own standards. Nonetheless, we're eager to share this musical adventure with the world!"
