Frozen Crown announce new album ‘War Hearts’
FROZEN CROWN have announced a new album!
Titled War Hearts, the upcoming album from the Italian power metal band is the follow-up to last year’s Call Of The North, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Napalm Records.
Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “War Hearts is our fifth album, but it’s also the first one as a six-piece band and the first one on Napalm Records. It’s also the first album where all members actually make their appearance on the recording. For these reasons, War Hearts represents a new beginning, a fresh start, and it may be considered the first episode of FROZEN CROWN ‘reboot’. We wrote and arranged this album acting like we had no history at all, never afraid to repeat some of our trademark stylistic features. On the contrary, we highlighted and gave more value to them, to make our new songs sound 100% like us. We worked hard on the material to cut away all the useless parts and make the songs as catchy and straightforward they could be, and to make them sound like quintessential FROZEN CROWN.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, FROZEN CROWN have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Steel And Gold. Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, the band says, “we’re extremely excited to have the Steel And Gold official video finally released via Napalm Records. This is the fulfillment of years of hard work, as well as a fresh start! This video doesn’t deviate from the usual FROZEN CROWN style, it just consolidates it. Very often, our videos have been labeled as ‘just a bunch of people having the time of their lives playing metal in some beautiful scenery… plus a lot of hair’. We must say, we totally agree!
This time, though, the beautiful scenery is the gorgeous Castello dei Doria, in Dolceacqua, Liguria, in northwestern Italy, and the ‘bunch of people’ is just one more person on guitar, adding firepower (and hair) to the ensemble. Steel And Gold is a song about loyalty, integrity and self improvement. It’s about remaining true to your ideals and about the search for unattainable perfection.”
