German metalcore titans Annisokay are back with a vengeance. Following the massive success of their EPs Abyss I and Abyss II—which have already racked up 36 million Spotify streams and continue to pull in nearly half a million monthly listeners—the band has unleashed their brand new single “My Effigy.”
The track is everything fans love about Annisokay: punishing heaviness, soaring clean hooks, and an emotional undercurrent that cuts deep. The lyrics wrestle with inner demons, scars, and survival, while the chorus explodes into an anthem that fans are already calling spine-tingling.
The video reflects the band’s recent career-defining moments at Wacken and Summer Breeze Open Air, where they played to their biggest crowds yet. It’s both a reflection and a declaration—Annisokay aren’t just here to stay, they’re here to dominate.
Fan Reactions Say It All:
- “THEY ARE BACK LET’S GOO, I CAN’T BE MORE HAPPY.”
- “Those clean vocals man… it’s like staring at the sea on a star-filled night.”
- “A chorus that finally gave me shivers again!”
- “After a long time, the words in this song touched me and helped me get through one more night.”
With fans praising the song’s unique video format, the acoustic outro, and the emotional punch of its lyrics, “My Effigy” is shaping up to be one of the band’s most powerful releases to date.
