DOMINUM Announce New Album Night is Calling – Out July 3, 2026 via Napalm Records | Pre-Order Starts NOW!

DOMINUM return with their third full-length album, Night is Calling, out July 3, 2026 via Napalm Records. After storming straight into the Top 10 of the Official German Album Charts with their previous album The Dead Don't Die, the fast-rising band led by mastermind and vocalist Felix Heldt – better known to fans as Dr. Dead – is ready to open the next chapter of their dark and theatrical universe.
Blending substantial songwriting with heavy riffs, arena-ready hooks and irresistibly catchy choruses, DOMINUM have carved out their own thrilling niche between modern metal and horror aesthetics. With their bombastic sound and unmistakable stage presence, the band continues its unstoppable rise within the international metal scene. Night is Calling is now available for Pre-Order – selected formats include the Live at Wacken 2025 Bonus album.
Dr. Dead on Night is Calling:
"'They grow up so fast.' – Ugh. It makes me sick.
And now I feel it myself: my zombies have grown up. Our creation… has grown up too.
But unlike the pitiful rest, we don't mourn our childhood. No. We revel
in who we are. Being a child, being an adult – what does that even mean?
Anyway – the world lies at our feet, and we can do whatever we damn
well please.
Believe me from firsthand experience: an army of zombies makes
everything a hell of a lot easier… and way more fun with every bit of
trouble getting the punch it deserves. We have the power to reshape our
world. And oh, we do.
'Night is Calling' - this is our outlet.
Stronger melodies, heavier riffs, sharper, unflinching lyrics –
honesty as our deadliest weapon. We are who we are. And you… you're in
this whether you like it or not. The undead are on the march, more
relentless than ever. Join us – immediately, willingly… or a little
later when we come to your neighborhood.
Either way… we'll be seeing you.
Dr. Dead"
Led by Dr. Dead (vocals) and his Zombies – Tommy Kemp (guitars), Patient 0 (bass), and Victor Hilltop (drums) – DOMINUM have already taken their undead spectacle to major stages across Europe. Touring alongside icons such as Bruce Dickinson, Avantasia, Battle Beast and Peyton Parrish, the band has proven its strength both at major festivals and during their own headline shows.
Produced by Felix Heldt and mixed by renowned producer Jacob Hansen, Night is Calling expands the band's sonic universe with even heavier riffs, bigger choruses and cinematic drama. The explosive opener "The Circus Is In Town" throws listeners straight into DOMINUM's twisted carnival, while infectious anthems such as "Doctor Doctor" and "Dark Melodies" deliver massive hooks destined to echo across festival crowds. The powerful title track "Night is Calling" (feat. Battle Beast) further highlights the band's growing presence on the international metal stage.
With Night is Calling, DOMINUM continue their rapid ascent while staying true to what makes them unique: theatrical, melodic and heavy metal driven by the dark charisma of Dr. Dead and his Zombies. One thing is certain – the Living Dead Squad keeps growing.
