End Of Green have re-recorded their legendary debut »Infinity«. Almost 30 years later, the band is returning to its droning roots – and is setting the course for the future with a new deal with Reaper Entertainment.

With their stoner goth, End Of Green placed themselves in their very own pigeonhole right from the start in 1996. The legendary debut »Infinity«, released by Nuclear Blast at the time, is a massive bridge between the gothic doom walls of Type O Negative and the droning desert air of Kyuss. Big songs, lots of reverb and plenty of oomph, somehow lamenting like the weeping marble statue in the cemetery and yet nonchalantly fucked up like a drinker after a successful night at the bar. And yes, singer Michelle Darkness sounds like he’s singing to us from a musty crypt. Like the Lost Boys, only with guitars. The band calls it all “Depressed Subcore” – probably because they don’t really know what else to call it. Metal, rock, goth, alternative… somehow the Swabians have it all. It rocks, like hell even. It has coolness and vibe. It mourns. It sits between the chairs in such a way that it’s a joy.

30 years later, Michelle Darkness, Kerker, Hundi, Lusiffer and Sad Sir have re-recorded this monument between depression and hedonism. And the result is just as spectacular and special as you would imagine. There were changes to the songs during the re-recording, but they were very subtle. It was important for »Infinity« to have a dark, contemporary twin. »Twinfinity«, in other words.

“It all started for us with »Infinity«,” says singer Darkness. “This album is the starting point of a 30-year journey. This band is my life, I can’t and won’t say it any other way. Without this band, without my boys, I wouldn’t exist. It’s all about the music for me. That’s why this new recording was a very emotional experience for me. It’s probably my most important album.” With »Twinfinity«, End Of Green are also officially entering a new era. Suffering, as End Of Green also show on this spectacular new recording, can certainly be fun.

»Twinfinity« is released on January 24th, 2025 – and can be ordered HERE.

Formed in 1992, End Of Green are a goth metal band hailing from Stuttgart, Germany. With a sound that explores the darker side of the human experience, the quintet made its debut in 1996 with »Infinity«, which was released on Nuclear Blast, followed by a second album, 1998’s »Believe, My Friend«, on Sub Zero Records. The band would go on to release a string of albums on Silverdust Records, including 2002’s »Songs For A Dying World«, 2003’s »Last Night On Earth«, 2005’s »Dead End Dreaming«, and 2008’s »The Sick’s Sense«. Their eighth album, »The Painstream«, arrived on Napalm Records in 2013 and followed by »Void Estate« in 2017.
