Determination, adventure, and a glorious quest are at the heart of GLORYHAMMER's latest offering
Warriors of Planet Earth, rejoice! GLORYHAMMER, the last defenders of TRUE Power Metal, charge into battle once more with "On a Quest for Aberdeen"! With thunderous riffs and soaring vocals, GLORYHAMMER embark on their next heroic chapter. This high-octane power metal anthem blends heavy rhythm guitars, virtuoso solos, and electrifying melodies into an epic tale of adventure, mythical beasts, and destiny. The band's signature bombast is taken even further by huge vocal choirs, searing dual guitars, and enormous orchestration, finished off by their biggest production yet, courtesy once more of Jacob Hansen (Powerwolf, Amaranthe). The track is not less than a blazing journey through fantastical realms—bold, bombastic, and unmistakably GLORYHAMMER.
With their brand-new stand-alone single, the band once again takes their signature power metal soundscape to a new level. Determination, adventure, and a glorious quest are at the heart of GLORYHAMMER's latest offering. The band will bring "On a Quest for Aberdeen", along with their other reliably hard-hitting tracks, to European stages on their Dundax Ascendant Summer Tour. Alongside their labelmates Visions of Atlantis, they'll storm both festival and club stages, before they embark with Alestorm on an extensive tour throughout the US! So mark your calendars and ready your hammers—glory awaits!
GLORYHAMMER add about "On a Quest for Aberdeen":
"The story continues the journey of Angus McFife V - a mysterious character first revealed in 2022's fan favourite single, 'Fly Away'. His discovery of interstellar travel leads him to the ruins of Space Dundee, a year after the events of 'Space 1992'. Dismayed and disheartened, but never beaten, he begins his quest for the golden fortress of Aberdeen, only to find himself trapped and surrounded in the HEAVENS OF THE DEMONFLAME."
