Greek power metal band Firewind will release its 11th studio album, “Gods, Myths & Titans,” on Feb. 19, 2027, via BLKIIBLK. Pre-order the album here, and watch the lyric video for the first single, “The Legend of Achilles,” below.
“We’ve wanted to make a concept album about Greek mythology for a long time, and finally we got around to it,” guitarist Gus G. (King Diamond, Ozzy Osbourne) said. “It’s been two years in the making, and our goal was to create the most epic album in the history of the band. Adding cinematic and orchestral elements to our classic metal sound gave a whole new layer, enhancing the style of Firewind.
“Each track is a gate to a different myth. We went all in with the visual side as well and worked with Felipe Machado, who created unique artwork for every song. These are tales of power, glory, tragedy and defiance. Today we give you the first single, and it’s about Achilles—one of the mightiest warrior legends to ever walk the earth. Turn up the volume and enter the realm of ‘Gods, Myths, & Titans.'”
“Gods, Myths & Titans” marks the return of Henning Basse behind the microphone, and it is Firewind’s first album to be released through BLKIIBLK, Frontiers Label Group’s dedicated metal brand.
