NEWS - German Symphonic Metal Icons XANDRIA Announce New Album, "Eclipse", for August 7, 2026, via Napalm Records

While "The Wonders Still Awaiting" (2023) marked the rebirth of XANDRIA with a new line-up—an album that opened the door to a new era—"Eclipse" goes further. It is more focused and direct, the lyrics are more outspoken, dealing almost entirely with what is happening to our civilization right now. The contrasts are stronger, and the different musical and vocal colours feel even more naturally integrated into the songs. As XANDRIA's sole composer, Marco Heubaum musically draws inspiration from all aspects of his surroundings: music, stories, and emotions that have shaped him since childhood. It is no secret that film scores have always been another major influence, especially composers like Hans Zimmer and John Williams.

Marco Heubaum – Guitar, Keys
Ambre Vourvahis – Vocals
Robert Klawonn – Guitar
Dimitrios Gatsios – Drums
