Distant announce new album ‘Into Despair’ and release new single ‘All Will Be (N)one’

Author Benedetta Baldin - 3.7.2026

Distant has emerged as one of the leading forces in European deathcore. Blending brutal death metal, slam, noise, and beatdown with a hyper-dissonant soundtrack of impending doom, the band has evolved far beyond its beginnings as a group of metalcore-obsessed friends from Rotterdam and Bratislava.

Today, the band have announced their new album “Into Despair”, out 6th November via Century Media Records. The album is Distant’s most personal and emotional work to date, exploring real-life struggles, loss, and the shared grief that connects humanity. The album dives deep into the darker corners of the human experience while finding solace in collective understanding. Pre-order the record here.

Distant elaborate:
“Driven by raw honesty and pure emotion, ‘Into Despair’ is an album born from personal battles and lived experiences. Every song carries pieces of each member’s own journey, with moments of pain, reflection, and resilience woven into a deeply intimate body of work. More than just a collection of songs, ‘Into Despair’ is a cathartic expression of vulnerability and a reminder that even in our darkest moments, grief is something we all share. It stands as the band’s most heartfelt and authentic statement yet, transforming personal suffering into something universally resonant.”

To celebrate the announcement, the band have released their new single ‘All Will Be (N)one‘ featuring Ricky Myers of Suffocation alongside a punishing music video. Speaking on the single, the band shares:
“All Will Be (N)One” is a bleak, atmospheric track that explores humanity’s fear of death and the inevitability of time’s collapse. Blending crushing riffs with relentless rhythms, the song builds a sense of slow-burning dread before erupting into moments of raw confrontation. Lyrically, it shifts the perspective from resistance to acceptance. The feature from Ricky Myers of Suffocation adds an extra layer of intensity and authority, reinforcing the track’s central message: that everything fades, and all will be (n)one.”
