The collaboration brings together modern metalcore and dark electronic music as REVNOIR continues its rise on the European festival circuit.
French metal outfit REVNOIR has unveiled its latest single, “Alchemised,” a collaboration with acclaimed synthwave and dark electronic artist Carpenter Brut. Accompanied by a cinematic music video, the track marks one of the band’s most high-profile releases to date and highlights the growing crossover between contemporary heavy music and electronic production.
“Alchemised” pairs REVNOIR’s modern metal foundation with Carpenter Brut’s signature electronic influence, resulting in a song that moves between crushing riffs, industrial textures, melodic hooks, and cinematic atmosphere. Rather than operating strictly within the boundaries of metalcore or electronic music, the collaboration draws from both worlds, creating a sound designed to appeal to fans across multiple genres.
Lyrically, the song centers on themes of obsession, temptation, and personal transformation. The narrative follows two individuals trapped in a destructive connection, unable to escape the attraction that continues to pull them toward one another despite the consequences. That tension between desire and self-destruction serves as the emotional core of the track, while the accompanying video expands on those ideas through dystopian imagery and narrative-driven visuals.
The release represents another notable step forward for REVNOIR, a band that has steadily expanded its audience through a combination of heavy songwriting, cinematic presentation, and visually ambitious releases. Over the past several years, the group has built an international following and accumulated millions of streams across digital platforms while establishing a reputation for energetic live performances.
The addition of Carpenter Brut brings another layer of significance to the release. Widely recognized for his work within synthwave, dark electronic, and cinematic music circles, Carpenter Brut has developed a global audience through a style that blends retro-futuristic electronics with aggressive, heavy influences. His involvement on “Alchemised” creates a natural meeting point between two artists known for embracing atmosphere and intensity while pushing beyond traditional genre limitations.
The collaboration also reflects a broader trend within heavy music, where the lines between metal, industrial music, electronic production, and cinematic storytelling continue to blur. REVNOIR has increasingly incorporated those elements into its work, and “Alchemised” may be the clearest example yet of that evolution.
While the song stands on its own as a standalone release, it arrives during an active period for the band. REVNOIR is scheduled to appear at several major European festivals throughout 2026, including Hellfest, Motocultor Festival, Into The Grave Festival, and Xtreme Fest. The group will continue touring into 2027 with an extensive run of club dates across France and Belgium, culminating in a performance at Paris’ Alhambra in February.
For a band continuing to build momentum across Europe, “Alchemised” serves as both a creative statement and a strategic collaboration. By bringing together REVNOIR’s modern metal approach and Carpenter Brut’s electronic signature, the track highlights the band’s willingness to explore new territory while expanding its reach beyond traditional genre boundaries.
