The wait is finally over and today sees the long awaited release of »Der Rote Reiter«, the new studio album from German Metal Superstars DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER via Nuclear Blast! »Der Rote Reiter« has received critical acclaim from the press and public alike: „An unique, life-affirming, powerful metal album! Welcome back – please stay.“ 7/7 Points | METAL HAMMER „Hard music with wonderful melody lines, anthem vocals and unbelievable recognition value. You’ll finally get what you expect!” 14/15 Points | LEGACY „The title of the first song ‚Wir sind zurück‘ (engl.: we are back) can be understood literally and sums up the whole album: brute and dark but in the meantime crazy and unique, adventurous and happy!” 9/10 Points | ROCK HARD „One thing is clear: DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER are ready for metal. What an awesome comeback!!!“ 9/10 Points | metal.de DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER are simply unstoppable: After the release of their controversial 'Auf Und Nieder' clip, the band has unleashed the next video from their upcoming album »Der Rote Reiter« 'Die Freiheit Ist Eine Pflicht'. Watch the clip, here: https://youtu.be/NT41MRDEka4 The band said on the clip's creation: "It's a great tradition of ours to invite our families and friends over some weeks before every album release to listen to the new record and have a good time. This time we had a special surprise for our guests: They would star with us in our new video 'Die Freiheit Ist Eine Pflicht'. We had built a small film set in our rehearsal room in Weimar. Once our friends' initial shock was gone, they started to learn the lyrics and then we started straight away. An incredible monument began to materialise - the video shoot and celebration happened synchronously. After 'Wir Reiten' (2011), this is only the second video that we have created ourselves (filming, cutting). We want to thank everyone who participated and helped us in front of and behind the camera, to make this idea come to life."
