Samurai Pizza Cats veröffentlichen Album “PRESS START”
Samurai Pizza Cats veröffentlichen ihr zweites Album „PRESS START“, das ab sofort bestellt/gestreamt werden kann.
„PRESS START EUROPEAN TOUR 26“ im Oktober
Und nun sind sie beim letzten Kapitel angelangt: Die Samurai Pizza Cats steigen mit der Veröffentlichung ihres zweiten Albums „Press Start“ das nächste Level auf. Das Album erscheint heute, am 27. März 2026, über Century Media Records. Die Platte bietet 12 Tracks voller Härte, Humor und mitreißender Hooks – eine perfekte Mischung für die deutsche Metalcore-Band, deren Name eine Anspielung auf einen Kult-Anime-Klassiker aus den 90er Jahren ist. Das neue Album könnte zu keinem besseren Zeitpunkt erscheinen: Die Band feiert die Veröffentlichung mit ihrem Samurai Pizza Fest, das am 28. März in Köln stattfindet, und geht im nächsten Monat mit From Fall To Spring auf Europatournee. Im Oktober werden Samurai Pizza Cats das Album dann im Rahmen ihrer „Press Start European Tour 26“ live auf die Bühne bringen.

Fully embracing their band name, Samurai Pizza Cats are also releasing a brand-new video for the track “Ramen-Man”, fully filmed in Tokyo, Japan. The highly addictive track also features the iconic Japanese trio BABYBEARD and shows exactly the essence of “Press Start” as a record.

About Samurai Pizza Cats
Samurai Pizza Cats from Castrop-Rauxel have long since ceased to be an insider tip since releasing their first self-published songs. Founded in 2021 by Daniel Haniß (Electric Callboy), Sebastian Fischer, and Stefan Buchwald (both formerly of Fall Of Gaia), the band quickly built a loyal fan base thanks to their unique sound and high-energy live performances. Since 2021, Stefan Reufer has been the bassist of the Ruhr area band and a permanent member of Samurai Pizza Cats. At the end of 2025, Robin Kemper joined the band as the new drummer, bringing fresh momentum to the Castrop-Rauxel-based lineup.
Musically, the band moves between metalcore and deathcore with electronic influences, standing out through catchy melodies and powerful guitar riffs. Their songs are characterized by a blend of biting humor and profound themes, which adds an extra humorous touch to their name—an allusion to a cult anime series.
