(CSM) Dirkschneider & The Old Gang (DATOG) have unleashed Babylon, the monumental title track from their upcoming album, set for release on October 3, 2025 via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).
DATOG's Babylon pulls you in with eastern-tinged melodies and takes you on a magic carpet ride through lands of myth and mystery. The band describes the song so: "'Babylon' is an absolutely worthy title track. Featuring a pounding, ultra-hard riff, plus the vocal melodies of Udo, Peter and Manuela that transport you straight into a fairy tale from "One Thousand and One Nights." The guitar arrangements and especially Mathias' solo guitar work support the imaginative atmosphere and drive the song to its absolute climax."
Lyrically, Babylon invites listeners to walk the world of wonders where every tale is true - through mystic havens, desert nights, and golden treasures shining bright for the Holy Queen of Babylon. It's a song that dares to cross the line between fantasy and heavy metal firepower, guiding fans into a place "where the holy gate's gonna be your fate."
As the title track, Babylon is the perfect metaphor for the content of the album itself: behind the holy gates, treasures are unveiled. Both single and music video offer a splendid final taste of DATOG's unparalleled artistry before the official album release - a musical journey fans will want to experience again and again.
