Swedish power metal group has unveiled a new song “Metal United.” The track is the first new song since the group’s Christmas musical album, 2020’s A Christmas Carol, and their overall debut record 2019’s Above The Sky. The track, “Metal United,” was written during this time of uncertainty with the COVID-19 pandemic, as the band explained:
“All the people that work at the festivals and with touring bands have had a rough year, just like all of us. But a lot of these people that work so hard to make it possible for us musicians to perform on stage have had problems finding new jobs, and without these hard-working people, we can’t make our dreams come true. And since we love to play at festivals and to go to festivals, we have been missing out on one important thing that means so much to us. So the least we can do to honor these fine working people is to write a song as a tribute to them. A cheerful, uplifting song with Irish influences about the hope that everything will be back to normal, and a melodic, uptempo heavy metal song with an important message.”
