Tracklist: Disc 1/Side A Shadows of Neverness Deathbringer Light in the Dark The Creature’s Tale Disc 1/Side B Back from the Fires of Hell To Boldly Go Climbing Higher Disc 2/Side C No Deal (bonus track) Dawn of Deliverance Gunslinger Disc 2/Side D Never to Yield Forever and a Day Fever (bonus track) - Judas Priest cover Hamburg-based IRON SAVIOR have long established themselves as one of Europe's most consistent and productive power metal bands. With their monumental new studio album "Deathbringer", the band around Piet Sielck has more than one reason to celebrate: following the third installment of the "Reforged" series, for which IRON SAVIOR completely re-recorded the songs from their Noise Records era, as well as a covers album, the band now presents a brand-new studio album. Set for release on November 13, 2026 via their new label Frontiers Music, this next chapter in the band's history finds IRON SAVIOR in outstanding form - full of energy, punch and soaring anthems. In support of "Deathbringer", IRON SAVIOR will also hit the road together with Mystic Prophecy. And this certainly should not go unmentioned: the band is celebrating 30 years of IRON SAVIOR. As usual, Piet Sielck once again produced the album himself - at his own Powerhouse Studio, a well-established name in the field of powerful metal productions and a place that has long been inseparably connected to the sound of IRON SAVIOR. With "Deathbringer", the band delivers the perfect successor to their successful 2023 album "Firestar". The song "Back from the Fires of Hell" holds a very special meaning for Piet - not only because it serves as the album's first single. Even its title immediately catches the ear, as it directly recalls "Through the Fires of Hell", a track from the previous album "Firestar". "I wrote the first lyrics before I received my cancer diagnosis… then poetry turned into bitter reality… although in a different way than I had originally imagined," Piet recalls. "We went through this together… 'Through the Fires of Hell' is therefore more like poetry dedicated to my wife, while 'Back from the Fires of Hell' is more of a reflection on actual events." What unites all songs on the new album is their anthemic character - always one of IRON SAVIOR's greatest strengths. "Climbing Higher" provides a powerful motivational boost; excursions into melodic speed metal territory such as "Light in the Dark" are present as well, and the fast, high-energy title track "Deathbringer" immediately grabs the listener's attention. The stomping, relentless "Creature's Tale" also stands out as another highlight of the album. With "Deathbringer", IRON SAVIOR also return to the concept album format. After 200 years of peace, the galaxy once again stands on the brink: the Shadows, an insectoid species and ancient enemy of mankind, have returned. Aboard the gigantic Deathbringer vessel, their immortal Queen has preserved the last remnants of her species inside an eternal digital hive - sustained by the life force of countless worlds. Now the Iron Savior and the Alliance must face an enemy more powerful than ever before. Musically and narratively, "Deathbringer" brings together everything IRON SAVIOR have stood for over the past three decades: powerful power metal, huge choruses, sci-fi grandeur and a band that, even after 30 years, has lost none of its energy.
