Swedish rap-metal veterans Clawfinger are back with a bang. The band has officially released their new album “Before We All Die” – their first full-length offering in 19 long years – and celebrated the occasion the night before with an exclusive release show at Kollektivet Livet in Stockholm, attended by a handpicked group of lucky fans. Now, they’re keeping the momentum going with an explosive video for the album’s title track!
From environmental collapse to political hypocrisy, personal disillusionment to collective denial, £ is Clawfinger at full volume: still pissed off, still sharp as ever, and still refusing to shut up while the world pretends it’s all fine.
“This album is part protest, part therapy, and part middle finger,” the band says. “We’re not offering solutions. We’re screaming because silence is surrender.”
With the new record and the title-track video, Clawfinger make it clear that their voice remains as urgent and uncompromising as ever! Watch the clip now premiering here:
Known for their pioneering fusion of metal, rap, and unflinching social commentary, Clawfinger return with £, an album that rekindles the fire which made them one of Europe’s most groundbreaking crossover acts. This long-awaited comeback marks not just a return, but a reinvention, proof that true intensity never fades.
“Before We All Die ” captures the band’s trademark fusion of sharp rap delivery, heavy grooves and biting social commentary, now more relevant than ever. Despite releasing their first studio album since 2007, Clawfinger are seeing significant success across social media platforms and streaming services, where both new material and classic tracks are gaining impressive traction. The band’s lyrical perspective and unmistakable sound clearly strike a chord with the current zeitgeist, resonating not only with long-time fans but also with a new, younger generation of metal listeners. This renewed relevance proves that Clawfinger‘s message, attitude and musical identity remain as powerful and timely as ever!
