Induction announce new album ‘LOVE KILLS!’

INDUCTION have announced a brand new album!

Titled LOVE KILLS!, the upcoming record is the follow-up to their 2022 album Born From Fire and is scheduled to be released on February 6th, 2026 via Reigning Phoenix Music. Crafted at Chameleon Studios and Boogie Park Studios in Hamburg, the album was produced by guitarist Tim Kanoa Hansen and mixed/mastered by Eike Freese in collaboration with Hansen.

Speaking about the album, Hansen says, “for me, this album carries a lot of raw and personal emotion. Life always moved forward, and even in the darkest times, love always found its way back. With LOVE KILLS! we explore the beauty and cruelty of love in a futuristic power metal context. It’s Induction at our biggest, boldest, and most fun yet.”

Alongside the album announcement, the band have released a new single, Steel And Thunder. The track is a thunderous tribute to the epic sci-fi classic Terminator. The new single is the latest to be released from the upcoming album, following on from the title track, Dark Temptation and Beyond Horizons.

Speaking about the song, Tim adds, “seriously… who doesn’t love the Terminator series? Steel And Thunder is our tribute to exactly that. Terminator played a huge role in shaping my love for sci-fi and continues to inspire INDUCTION both visually and musically. I think this song really captures that vibe. Crank it up and see for yourself, but don’t blame me if it feels like Judgment Day in your living room, and Skynet breathing down your neck.”
