BEFORE THE DAWN Unleash Fourth Single ‘Shockwave’ With Cinematic New Music Video From Upcoming Album Cold Flare Eternal

Finnish melodic death metal veterans BEFORE THE DAWN have unleashed Shockwave, the fourth and most hard-hitting single from their highly anticipated upcoming album Cold Flare Eternal — accompanied by a cinematic and visually intense official music video. The new track continues the band’s resurgence with a sound that fuses bone-crushing heaviness and haunting melody in perfect balance.

Shockwave lives up to its name, delivering a surge of adrenaline through pounding drums, razor-sharp guitar work, and brooding atmospheres. Lyrically, the track captures a violent emotional reckoning — the moment when inner struggles reach a boiling point and everything comes crashing down. It’s both a cry of defiance and a release of pressure, masterfully wrapped in BEFORE THE DAWN’s icy sonic signature.

The accompanying music video adds another layer of intensity to the release. Shot with stark visual contrasts and a cinematic narrative, the video mirrors the chaos and catharsis of the song — capturing isolation, transformation, and the final, explosive breaking point. It’s a visual storm to match the track’s emotional weight.

As Cold Flare Eternal draws closer, Shockwave stands as a powerful preview of what’s to come. BEFORE THE DAWN are not just revisiting their roots — they’re carving a new path forward with sharpened precision and renewed passion. The shockwave has hit — and the aftershocks are only beginning.

The band will be on Cold Flare Eternal EU tour this fall.
