German symphonic metal sensation Beyond The Black, is excited to share the third single from their eagerly awaited upcoming studio album, Break The Silence, which is due to be released on 9 January 2026 via Nuclear Blast Records. The emotional anthem "The Art Of Being Alone" features none other than Chris Harms of the acclaimed Lord Of The Lost on guest vocals.

The track lyrically addresses important contemporary issues, including mental health, self-empowerment, and a positive outlook on life. A video released alongside the single illustrates the feeling of being alone and cornered, but towards the end, it shows the path to self-awareness and ultimately, a way out of this mental prison.

Singer Jennifer Haben commented: “‘The Art Of Being Alone’ is one of the most emotional songs for us since it‘s born from personal battles and quiet reflections. We wanted it to be fragile and powerful at the same time and we believe many of you will find your own story between its lines. Having Chris Harms join us with his uniquely intense voice and personality felt absolutely perfect and brought a depth to this track that made it even more special.”

Chris Harms (Lord Of The Lost) added: "This duet was long overdue! For more than 10 years now, Lord Of The Lost and Beyond The Black have been crossing paths — we like and appreciate each other and it was kind of obvious that Jenny’s and my voices would work great together. Now we’ve finally made it happen and created this powerful, goosebump-inducing song together! I’m really happy about it!"

Beyond The Black's sixth full-length album, Break The Silence, is a concept album rooted in melodic metal with ethno influences. It explores themes of communication, inner strength, resilience and the urgent need to reconnect in a divided world. Tracks like "Let There Be Rain", "(La Vie Est Un) Cinéma", "Ravens" and "The Flood" examine how words – and their absence – shape our reality. It’s an emotional, multi-layered experience that mirrors today’s complex world and invites fans to be part of this new chapter.

Beyond The Black also recently announced the European Tour for January and February 2026. Check the dates below, but before that, watch the video for "The Art Of Being Alone". Link
