German NDH/modern metal force Schattenmann have unleashed the third single/video, "Schna-na-naps", from their forthcoming album, Endgegner, due on 13 March 2026 via Perception.
"Schna-na-naps" hits fast and hits hard. The song blends tight electronic pulses with heavy guitar work and a hook that flips instantly from playful to explosive. What started as a spontaneous idea turned into a full metal party anthem. Thick riffs, punching beats, and a chorus built to ignite crowds form the core of the track. The video boosts that energy even further and feels like a wild night out packed into a three-minute blast.
Frontman Frank Herzig states: "Born from a spur of the moment idea, the song sat in a drawer for years as an electro version. When our producer Henning Verlage said we should turn it into a metal track, I first thought he was crazy. That is not Schattenmann, I told myself. But the more we worked on it, the clearer it became. It fits. The song has the same good vibes as Hände hoch and it simply makes you want to go wild. Add the crushing guitars and the thick electronics and you get a mix that is unique. It is pure energy, fun and a full on party".

"I find it really bizarre, because right after the concert, you're already on the internet. I mean, come on. It's very different from how it used to be, but it's fine." - Anja Huwe
"We only make an album when we feel genuinely inspired. You can't just say, "OK, I'm going to record a new album", because without inspiration, it would be boring." - Gregor Mackintosh
