Austrian post black metal project Ellende, led by Graz based multi instrumentalist L.G., has released a new single titled “Wahrheit Teil II”. The track offers a strong look into the new album “Zerfall”, which arrives on January 2 through AOP Records. The project has built a steady underground following because it blends bleak black metal with emotional weight. The new song keeps that mix alive in a direct and honest way.

The single pushes the ongoing story that shapes the early part of the album, and it builds on the tone of the previous songs. It follows “Nur” and “Wahrheit Teil I”. Because of this link, the track adds more weight to the dark mood behind the new record. The song shifts from calm and dreamlike moments into sharp and noisy peaks. This contrast keeps the energy high. In addition, L.G.’s strained vocal delivery adds pressure as the track moves between soft sections and heavy waves of sound.

The album is now open for preorder, and this early window gives fans time to explore its different formats. The options include vinyl editions, CD versions and digital releases. Meanwhile, Ellende will take the new material on a European tour early next year. The run begins on January 2 in Munich and ends on January 18 in Vienna. The shows give listeners a clear chance to hear the new songs live. They also mark the first full tour tied to “Zerfall”.
