After an impressive summer festival run that included performances at Wacken Open Air and Summer Breeze, German modern metalcore force THE NARRATOR return with their brand-new single “Pills From The Start”.
The track delivers a crushing groove while addressing the scars left by toxic friendships. Frontman Fabian Jochum offers a visceral performance that reflects struggles with self-worth and resilience, highlighting the band’s raw and emotional songwriting approach.
Like their previous single “Unbind Me”, the new track was mastered by Grammy Award-winning engineer Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound. The release arrives alongside an official music video that visually embodies the song’s intensity.
Fans can soon experience THE NARRATOR live as they embark on an extensive European tour with Annisokay, kicking off on October 10, 2025. To close the year, the band will perform a special hometown show in Essen on December 20, celebrating their successful year with an unforgettable performance.
The band commented: “‘Pills From The Start’ is about finding your own worth even when toxic friendships try to drag you down. Playing it live will be the perfect way to share this message with our fans”.
