On September 3, 2026, FLASH FORWARD released their new single "Down At The Bottom", a high-profile collaboration: Together with the alternative rock heavyweights Emil Bulls, the guys from the Ruhr area present a song that combines hardness, vulnerability, and absolute honesty, continuing the emotional impact of their recent releases.
"Down At The Bottom" tells of moments of inner turmoil, of guilt, fear, and the attempt to run away from one's own demons, fully aware that the only way out is to ultimately confront them. Musically, the powerful walls of guitars, driving drums, and an exhilarating, grand hook line merge the sound worlds of both bands into a raw, highly emotional symbiosis.
That this is far more than a classic guest feature is something the band itself points out:
"There are features where someone simply takes a part, and then there are songs where the musical DNA of both bands naturally connects. That's exactly how 'Down At The Bottom' felt from the very beginning. At some point, we realized that you can't even hear where Emil Bulls ends and Flash Forward begins. For us, that's the moment when a feature becomes a joint song."

In their 15th year, FLASH FORWARD once again prove why they are among the most consistent and exciting figures in the German alternative rock scene. With their unique blend of modern hardness, pop elements, and big choruses, the band from the Ruhr area has made a name for themselves far beyond the club scene. Whether on the main stages of Hurricane, Southside, Open Flair, and Highfield, or on their own extensive tours, FLASH FORWARD impress with captivating live energy.
After the band has already played support shows for international heavyweights like You Me At Six, Enter Shikari, Deaf Havana, or Palaye Royale (and has also shared the stage with Emil Bulls), this joint song now completes a circle. Following the chart success of their album "Renegade" (49th place in the German album charts) and the previous single "EXIT GAME", FLASH FORWARD continue their path consistently: "Down At The Bottom" is a powerful anthem for all those fighting through their own darkness, honest, powerful, and deeply moving.
