Heavy Metal titans GRAVE DIGGER release “The Devils Serenade” video single, going back to the roots on their upcoming,
new studio album “Bone Collector”!

2025 will not only mark the 45th anniversary of German iconic metal institution, Grave Digger, but the release of their 23rd studio album “Bone Collector”, that is slated for a release on January 17, 2025 via ROAR!

Founded in 1980 in Gladbeck, they set out to conquer the world; who would have thought that 45 years later Grave Digger would be one of the most important, consistent and influential metal bands from Germany. With the release of their ground-breaking debut “Heavy Metal Breakdown” in 1984, an unprecedented career began that will find its logical continuation more than four decades later with the band’s much-waited new masterpiece “Bone Collector”, an album that sees the band going back to their old school roots. The album can be pre-ordered at this location: https://gravedigger.rpm.link/bonecollector

After Grave Digger already shared some first promising album appetizers, “Kingdom Of Skulls and “Killing is my Pleasure”, today, the band aws fans with an unholy pre-Christmas gift and premieres a music video for their latest single “The Devils Serenade”!

Charismatic frontman Chris Boltendahl comments:
“We are proud to present the brand new Grave Digger video “The Devil’s Serenade”! This groovy anthem is a real banger that captures the essence of heavy metal and 80s stadium rock in every riff and every line. We went all out to write a song that is equally infectious, banging and takes you on a little journey through the band’s history.

The clip is a perfect mix of gripping atmosphere and pure energy – a feast for all those who have metal in their blood! We are thrilled with the result and can’t wait to bring this anthem to the stage with you. Turn it up loud and be ready to rock the hell out with us!”

Produced, mixed and mastered by Chris Boltendahl, optically set in scene by Brazilian artist Wanderley Perna, “Bone Collector” marks a work of art that heralds a new Grave Digger era.

“Here it is at last, our new studio album, true to the motto: #gravediggeroldschool. With Tobi Kersting in the band, we have focused on the essentials of our sound again after many years with numerous concept albums: Concise straightforward metal songs that burn themselves into your brain stems after the first listen. “Bone Collector” doesn’t sound like off-the-shelf stuff, but highly energetic, fresh and you’ll notice that we had a lot of fun with the songs. We’re looking forward to your reaction, the release of the album in January and 45 years of Grave Digger live with you,” Boltendahl recently said.

“Bone Collector” will be released as a CD digipak, picture vinyl, colored marbled vinyl, RPM exclusive splatter vinyl and digitally. At the RPM & ROAR Mailorder Shop, the limited splatter vinyl and the digipak are also available as a bundle with the exclusive “Old School” shirt. In support of “Bone Collector” and their 45th anniversary, the band will embark on an extensive tour in early 2025, with many more dates to follow. Find all upcoming concerts listed below!
