After charting #1 on the Official German Album Charts with their latest two records and gracing the cover of German Metal Hammer magazine, Germany’s top-notch force FEUERSCHWANZ is now celebrating the band’s 20th anniversary by releasing some of their greatest hits rearranged in English for the first time, beginning with “Highlander”! Originally released on their latest studio album, Fegefeuer (2023), FEUERSCHWANZ now present an English language version of the heavy track as a part of their first ever release with English lyrics, Warriors, out April 19, 2024 via Napalm Records.

In addition to English versions of “Highlander” and nine other big FEUERSCHWANZ hits, Warriors also features the brand-new song “The Unholy Grail” and a cover of the Assassin’s Creed classic “Valhalla Calling” by Miracle Of Sound, as well as many epic guest appearances, including Chris Harms (Lord Of The Lost), Francesco Cavalieri (Wind Rose), Dominum, Orden Ogan and Patty Gurdy. Reigning in the German metal scene, FEUERSCHWANZ played a nearly sold-out tour followed by premium and headline slots at main European summer festivals in 2023. Check out the official music video for “Highlander” below!

FEUERSCHWANZ state:
“’There can only be one!’ Immortal words from Immortal Men. Swords and epic tales with the sound of Queen. We pay tribute to our heroes from the world of fantasy and rock with the sound of roaring pipes and epic metal. Check out our rendition to the highlander and ask yourself: ‘Who wants to live forever?’“

Warriors looks back on a remarkable track record of tireless work and is further proof that FEUERSCHWANZ not only welcome challenges with open arms, but actively seek them out. Newly recorded – and for the first time ever in English – songs like “Das Elfte Gebot” (“The Forgotten Commandment”), “Memento Mori”, “Untot im Drachenboot” (“Death on the Dragonship”), “Bastard of Asgard” and “Fegefeuer” (“Purgatory”) take on a whole new character, but still sound familiar in FEUERSCHWANZ style. With “The Unholy Grail”, FEUERSCHWANZ surprise their fans with a brand-new song and take them directly into a captivating world full of legends and heroic battles. The final track is a cover of the Assassin’s Creed classic “Valhalla Calling” by Miracle Of Sound, which fits perfectly into the overall work and discography of FEUERSCHWANZ. Warriors is a new milestone in FEUERSCHWANZ‘s successful career, which only knows its way to the top!

Founded in 2004, FEUERSCHWANZ have evolved over the years from their roots in comedy medieval folk rock into a band to be taken seriously and are rightly regarded as one of the hottest acts on the scene. After they hit #1 in the Official German Album Charts for the first time with Memento Mori (2021), Germany’s hottest band managed to repeat that great success with their latest studio album Fegefeuer (2023). With premium slots at numerous festivals, such as co-headline slots at the legendary Wacken and Summer Breeze Open Airs, as well as abroad, including at Masters Of Rock and on the 70,000 Tons Of Metal cruise in the Caribbean, and an almost completely sold-out headlining tour, FEUERSCHWANZ underlined their outstanding position all the more last year. Many dates of the upcoming big Fegefeuer headline tour in 2024 are already completely sold out.
