Operatic black metal rising stars FOLTERKAMMER are now debuting a fun and empowering music video for their cheeky new single, "Leck Mich!" The video is 18th century class against 21st century crass; a bloody journey into the Rococo underground and its lustful ringleader, vocalist and frontwoman Andromeda Anarchia. The clip was once again directed by FOLTERKAMMER drummer Brendan McGowan and produced by Vile Luxe Studios.


The song is taken from the band's sophomore full-length, 'Weibermacht,' which is due on April 19, 2024 via Century Media Records!

Anarchia explains, "The expression 'Leck mich!' has several meanings in German. The literal (Lick me!) and the more abstract, vulgar version, short for 'Leck mich am (Arsch)!' (lick my a$$!), which is vulgar for: 'Leave me alone!' or 'Fvck off!'

The title of our upcoming album is 'Weibermacht' and this is the thematic leitmotif that runs through all the songs, including 'Leck mich!'! The term 'Weibermacht' refers to an art and cultural-historical motif and describes the triumph of women (and their erotic power) and love over men. In poetry, particularly powerful, wise, strong, and beautiful men allow themselves to be seduced by the folly of love and lose their self-control, virtue, dominance or even their lives.

In the song 'Leck mich!' the commanding tone is set; men are once again playfully commanded into the submissive and obedient role. 'Who sets the tone here?' there is a clear answer: 'The goddess, the mistress, the dominatrix.'"
