German metal band Heaven Shall Burn have kicked off 2025 by releasing their own interpretation of German punk band Slime‘s song “Schweineherbst”. The song features German noise rock band Dÿse as a guest artist.
“It is no secret that we love German punk and Slime have always been on top of our list. Schweineherbst is as up to date as it gets. We are especially proud about Elf himself adding a guitar solo to the song.”
““We live in a time when it is important to do the right thing ethically and morally, and to demonstrate inspiration and co-operation. We are a political band and gladly accepted the invitation from Heaven Shall Burn, a band we highly appreciate and with whom we share a history of almost twenty years, to realize a long-planned project. To make music together.” Guitarist Maik Weichert comments on the song.
The song is available on streaming services and a music video has also been released. “Schweineherbst” is the B-side to the band’s previously released single “Keinen Schritt zurück”, which featured the Donots as guest artists.
