About the album

Rumored to be finished, SUBWAY TO SALLY, the German grandmasters of folk metal, prove they are very much alive with their 15th studio album, "Post Mortem", set for release on December 20, 2024 via Napalm Records. Their 2023 predecessor, "Himmelfahrt", was secretly intended to be the final album of their over 30-year career. In hindsight, this explains the symbolic title. However, things turned out differently. The release of the album unleashed an unstoppable lightness, energy, and contagious enthusiasm that everyone involved could feel. SUBWAY TO SALLY had clearly struck a chord with their music, as fan and critic reactions to "Himmelfahrt" were overwhelmingly positive. Following a nearly sold-out tour, it became clear that the 14th album was not the final chapter. But how does one continue "Post Mortem"? The Potsdam-based band provides an impressive answer with their new masterpiece, opening with the explosive track "Phönix", which celebrates the creative rebirth of the folk metal institution. On "Post Mortem", SUBWAY TO SALLY neither look back nor into the future but rather deliver a sharp analysis of the present. Songs like "Wunder", "Nero", "Lumpensammler", and "Die Erde bebt" offer the band’s signature soundscape while exploring socially critical themes without moralizing.
