M‑Theory Audio proudly announces the signing of Finnish melancholic metal outfit Endless Chain. To mark the beginning of this new partnership, the group have presented their brand‑new composition, "Fade To Nothingness", accompanied by a compelling new visual piece (video production by Winter Notes Production).

"Fade To Nothingness" serves as the first taste of Endless Chain's anticipated full‑length, Nothingness, due for release on 20 November under M‑Theory Audio on Digipak CD with booklet, limited (300) hardwood‑coloured vinyl with insert, and digitally. A work of profound melancholy and atmosphere, the album blends aggressive beauty, emotional weight, and darkly expressive songwriting.

Label founder Marco Barbieri reflects: "There's only a couple instances I regretted passing on a band's submission, and Endless Chain is one. We considered releasing the band's 2024 album, Agony. Hearing the finished album, I instantly knew I'd made a mistake—Endless Chain's unique mix of dark aggression and poignant emotion resonated instantly. I'm thrilled they gave us another chance with their third album—a powerhouse release that takes their evocative, expressive songwriting to a whole new level".

Endless Chain's founder and guitarist Timo Mölsä comments on the signing: "We're incredibly excited to join the M-Theory Audio family. Many years of dedicated and patient work have led us to this moment. We would like to sincerely thank Marco Barbieri and the entire M-Theory Audio team for believing in our band and our music. We can't wait to share the new album with the world".

He adds: "Although 'Fade To Nothingness' is one of the heaviest Endless Chain songs ever, there's still something beautiful within it. It's a good representation of the upcoming album, and it was one of the first songs I wrote for the new album".

Vocalist Aki Salonen elaborates on the song's thematic depth: "The story behind the song is pretty complex. It's about that 'darkest hour' when you finally admit to yourself that things went too far a long time ago, and no amount of fighting is going to bring that past back. It could be about relationships, serious illness, death, you name it. In the end, it's up to the listener which perspective eases their mind the most". Link
