Dirkschneider & The Old Gang are keeping their word. One month after dropping their first visual from ‘Propaganda’, the German heavy metal outfit returns with the video for “Propaganda,” the album’s most unrelenting track. Released October 3, 2025 through Reigning Phoenix Music, the album has already made a serious impression, and this video now puts a face to its most combustible moment.
The song itself is a full-throttle assault built on double bass drum momentum, an aggressive guitar intro, and a riff that locks in and refuses to let go. Udo Dirkschneider and Peter Baltes trade polyphonic choir-style vocals against two-part guitar licks before the chorus erupts, sending the track’s media-critical message out at full volume. Manuela “Ella” Bibert adds solo vocal interludes and a Hammond organ performance that hits with real weight, eventually colliding with the guitar in a harmony battle that pulls from the best of the seventies and eighties.
The video delivers a visual counterpart worthy of the track’s uncompromising energy. With Babylon serving as the band’s ongoing monthly video series since the album’s release, “Propaganda” marks another chapter in a rollout that keeps delivering.
