BATTLE BEAST – Here We Are (2025) *HQ*
Finnish 6-piece BATTLE BEAST will release their seventh studio album, “Steelbound”, in October via Nuclear Blast. The advanced EP “Here We Are” features four tracks from the album. The tracks “Here We Are” is a bold, unapologetic anthem of resilience and unity. Armed with thunderous riffs, powerful vocals, and infectious hooks, the song captures the spirit of overcoming adversity and standing strong together.
Musically, all songs are very commercial and almost melodic hard rock with a metallic bombast in production. Just listen “Angel Of Midnight”, a pop-metal track built on a catchy hard rock riff, bouncing synths, and the soaring, powerful vocals of Noora Louhimo.
Then there’s the upcoming full length title track “‘Steelbound’, a song that is both heavy and light at the same time. It goes through the walls with a bang, both in terms of composition and lyrics, without forgetting the groove and the little twinkle in the eye, once again demonstrating BATTLE BEAST’s mastery in blending infectious hooks with heavy, high-energy metal — a sound that makes you want to dance and headbang all at once.
”Last Goodbye” is a tribute to human fighting spirit, with a pumping rhythm section and an anthemic chorus.
Production of the whole thing is precise, clear, huge, and as usual BATTLE BEAST songs are short, increasing its effectiveness.
