LONE WANDERER – Album im Januar; Lyric Video online
LONE WANDERER have announced their new and third overall full-length album, entitled "Exequiae", set for release on January 30th 2026 through High Roller Records.
With "Exequiae" (Latin for “funeral rites”), LONE WANDERER from Freiburg im Breisgau / Germany make a striking statement in the realm of Funeral Doom. The band’s High Roller debut continues the thematic line of its predecessor "The Faustian Winter" – from the end of Faustian culture to inner grief and existential despair. The five songs – including the nearly 25-minute centerpiece "To Rest Eternally" – combine majestic slowness, dense harmonies, and overwhelming heaviness.
"Exequiae" is a funeral mass in slow motion – majestic, despairing, uncompromising – and stands as the band’s most compelling statement to date, treating Funeral Doom as a true art form.
The artwork, in keeping with the quartet’s tradition, is by Romantic painter Ernst Ferdinand Oehme, whose "Procession in the Fog" captures the album’s grave stillness.
