Velvet Chains are back with a vengeance. The Las Vegas rockers have released their latest single, “How the Story Ends,” a gripping and emotional track that dives deep into the heart of human fragility. Blending raw emotion with razor-sharp production, the song showcases the band’s signature mix of melody, power, and soul, delivering a haunting anthem for anyone who’s ever faced loss, change, or the challenge of rebuilding from the ashes.
Premiered exclusively on SiriusXM’s Octane channel last week, “How the Story Ends” is already making serious waves. The single has now entered rotation on multiple rock stations across the U.S. and internationally, climbing quickly toward a potential Top 40 breakthrough on the Active Rock charts. With its surging guitars and emotionally charged lyrics, the track captures Velvet Chains at their most compelling.
“‘How the Story Ends’ is about searching for meaning in a world that has become uncertain and broken,” says bassist and founder Nils Goldschmidt. “It’s a reflection on loss, change, and the quiet yet brutal act of gathering what’s left of your life. It remains the most hauntingly raw and emotionally charged song we’ve ever written.” His words ring true as the song builds into a cathartic release, blending heartbreak with hope in perfect balance.
Velvet Chains continue to build their reputation as one of the most emotionally resonant forces in modern rock. With “How the Story Ends,” they’ve created a soundscape that feels both deeply personal and universally human — the kind of song that lingers long after the final chord fades.
