New Album, ‘Fegefeuer’, Out July 7, 2023 via Napalm Records – Pre-Order NOW!

Germany’s hottest band to date, FEUERSCHWANZ, have released a brand-new live video from their epic show at Wacken Open Air 2022, performing right after the headliner in front of one of the biggest crowds in their career! The performance – including a massive pyro show – was part of one of the band’s biggest shows to date, and the live version of the banger “Untot im Drachenboot” will also be available on the bonus CD of the band’s upcoming album, ‘Fegefeuer’, out July 7, 2023 via Napalm Records.

“Untot im Drachenboot” was originally released on FEUERSCHWANZ’s successful #1 charting 2021 album, ‘Memento Mori’, and reigns as one of the band’s fan favorites – with several millions of streams and video views. At Wacken, the song was literally set on fire!

FEUERSCHWANZ comments the new live video:

“The first time on one of the main stages at Wacken was a particularly emotional moment for us! We want to share this moment with you, so we have cut a music video for ‘Untot im Drachenboot’ from the existing video material to capture this experience for you forever!”

Formed in 2004, the band has gradually shifted from their roots in comedic medieval folk into a much more serious direction. With the switch to Napalm Records ahead of the release of ‘Das Elfte Gebot’ (2020), FEUERSCHWANZ set their sights entirely on metal – soon becoming one of the most relevant German bands in the genre today. The band’s enormously successful previous album of original music, ‘Memento Mori’ (2021), even stormed the official German charts, peaking at #1. On ‘Fegefeuer’, FEUERSCHWANZ spice up their medieval inspired folk metal with true heavy metal influences!

With ‘Fegefeuer’, the band is established as one of the biggest bands in the German metal scene, by being the cover artist on the next issue of Metal Hammer, including an exclusive eight-track CD.

‘Fegefeuer’ kicks off with outstanding opening track “SGFRD Dragonslayer”. Lyrical references to the legendary Siegfried Dragonslayer combine with heavy riffing and Nordic mythology. Successor “Bastard von Asgard” features beautiful vocals by Eluveitie’s Fabienne Erni. The catchy viking party anthem “Berzerkermode” calls for the listener to join the celebration and “party like a viking”, while the first three tracks, as well as heavy “Highlander”, are best proof of the band’s evolution from comedy rock to metal. Other tracks like the intense title track “Fegefeuer”, Lord of the Rings battlechant “Uruk-Hai” and “Die Horde” will be long-time fan favorites.

‘Fegefeuer’ stays lyrically true to trademark topics, exploring long forgotten legends and heroic battles, and shows off the band’s extraordinary musical skills. The album will be available in various formats, with some containing the live bonus album ‘Live in Wacken 2022’, which includes a recording of their co-headline show from the holy fields. With their new release, FEUERSCHWANZ clearly confirm their outstanding position at the top of the German metal scene!
