Wind Rose deelt track by track van nieuw album Trollslayer, ook nieuwe single

De power metalband Wind Rose deelt een track by track voorstelling van hun nieuw album Trollslayer dat op 4 oktober uitkomt. Ze gooien er meteen een nieuwe videoclip bij voor The Great Feast Underground.

Negen nummers telt het nieuwe album Trollslayer en hier gaan de nummers over:

1. Of Ice and Blood: If you already are a Wind Rose fan or at least have listened to the latest albums you already know this will be an epic orchestral introduction. We like that we are naming all introductions like "OF something AND something", it's like an easter egg we are giving to our fans in every album. The melody is dramatic, the perfect opening for an album about a Trollslayer, also it has something that reminds us of Wintersaga.

2. Dance of the Axes: An epic, fast paced, glorious opener with dominance of folk elements, it feels like we brought back some old earthy sounds from the Stonehymn era. You will enjoy the unusual structure of the song and the monumental choirs in the refrain.

3. The Great Feast Underground: This is the ultimate party anthem. It stands as the heir to the throne of Drunken Dwarves. The song invites everyone to raise their glasses, sing along, and embrace the spirit of the party. We are looking forward to playing this banger live and to see some massive circle pits to it.

4. Rock and Stone: Our powerful collaboration with Deep Rock Galactic, 'Rock and Stone' is a hard-hitting anthem that channels the energy of the game’s bold and fearless dwarves. As the first single from the album, it sets the tone with its heavy riffs and anthemic chants. We have already played it live and we can't wait to do this again and again.

5. To Be a Dwarf An entertaining anthem, 'To Be a Dwarf' is the second single of the album. The track dives deep into the proud, hard-hitting life of the dwarves, filled with adventure, mining and unity. It is a celebration of the dwarven way, sure to have listeners raising their mugs high and singing along to every word.
6. Home of the Twilight: A heroic, cheerful song with folk vibes, to dance and have fun to. We would not say it's the most interesting song in the album but surely will be very entertaining when played live, it reminds me a bit of the song "The Art of War" from the album Wintersaga.

7. Trollslayer: A fast-paced folk anthem with fierce battle vibes, the song charges forward with big energy. It captures the intensity of combat and the thrill of facing mighty foes. It immerses you in the heat of battle, with the raw spirit of those who fight fearlessly against the odds.

8. Legacy of the Forge: Another powerful anthem that echoes through the dwarven halls, a solid addition and a continuation to the epic tales woven throughout the album. The song allows the listener to dive deeper into the dwarven world.

9. No More Sorrow: The long, epic, and emotionally charged final hymn that marks the end of the Trollslayer's journey. Somber melodies and dramatic intensity, it brings the saga to an ending with the hero's inevitable fate, leaving a lasting impression as the story reaches its end.
