Today, German metal band RAGE shares a brand-new single, “Dying to Live,” from their forthcoming double studio album, Afterlifelines, out March 29, 2024.
Peavy Wagner had this comment on the track:
“A song for those who get forced by inhuman aggressors to fight and die in horrible wars!”
“Dying to Live” is available on all available platforms HERE and is accompanied by a new music video.

Afterlifelines is a double album that will consist of a total of 21 songs, including an intro, interlude, and outro.
Remarkably, the two records feature different musical approaches.
Singer and bassist Peavy Wagner explains:
“The first album is called Afterlife and comprises songs that we recorded as a trio, while the material on the second album Lifelines also includes classical orchestral arrangements.”
Peavy Wagner and his two band mates, Jean Bormann (guitar) and Vassilios “Lucky” Maniatopoulos (drums), have cut more than 94 minutes of new RAGE music, including what Wagner calls a “20-minute grand finale”. To sweeten the wait for the album release, Steamhammer / SPV will launch three lead singles from the new album starting in January 2024.
In addition to the release of the double album, RAGE invites fans to join them on their extensive 2024 world tour, with shows and festival appearances in Canada, Japan, and European countries such as Germany, Austria, Greece, Poland, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Spain and Scandinavia. Added to the bargain, Peavy Wagner has already announced a major RAGE biography launch for autumn 2024 to mark the group’s 40th anniversary, including lots of rare photos, behind-the-scenes material, and plenty of exciting anecdotes.
Looks like 2024 is set to be a real RAGE year!
