Following the release of their cinematic new album »Brandung«, Germany’s post-metal outfit Coltaine have announced a run of EU and UK tour dates in early 2026, joining Los Angeles doom trio Faetooth as main support.

The tour kicks off on January 22nd, 2026 in Berlin and will see both bands bringing their immersive and emotionally charged soundscapes to a string of intimate venues across Europe and the UK.

Formed amid the misty forests of southern Germany in 2022, Coltaine have quickly carved a unique space within the post-metal landscape. Their latest album »Brandung« (out now via Lay Bare Recordings) expands on the ethereal melancholy of their debut »Forgotten Ways«, blending acoustic introspection with seismic surges of electric catharsis. Across its nine interconnected tracks, vocalist Julia Frasch and her bandmates summon tides of longing and transcendence – a sonic ebb and flow that feels at once fragile and immense.

With »Brandung«, Coltaine reaffirm their commitment to atmosphere and emotional depth – qualities that will find their fullest expression on stage this winter. Sharing the bill with Faetooth, whose hazy yet heavy blend of doom and sludge has earned them a dedicated cult following, the pairing promises an evening of both raw power and haunting beauty.

»Brandung« is a collection of nine songs that intertwine seamlessly, pulling the listener into the depths of the band’s vision. The album finds Coltaine swimming in a trance-like state, as droning acoustic guitars gracefully melt into more dynamic electric sections. “Grace” is perhaps the most suitable term to describe the overall sense of soft longing for the unattainable, as Julia Frasch’s vocals paint their way through vast tapestries of sheer melancholia.

»Brandung« is out on September 5th, 2025 with orders available from Lay Bare Recordings HERE and from the band HERE.

Coltaine is:
Julia Frasch – Vocals
Moritz Berg – Guitar
Benedikt Berg – Bass
Amin Bouzeghaia – Drums
