All the latest updates from Nuclear Blast artists including news on Panzer, Blues Pills, Helloween, Beast In Black and Wednesday 13.
Last Friday, heavy metal icons PÄNZER finally unleashed their sophomore record entitled »Fatal Command«! Today, they present a brand-new lyric video for their song ‘I’ll Bring You The Night’, which is also part of the new album.
Schmier comments on the song: “We all have a bad day sometimes, this song might help you through this! Sometimes the animal in you needs to get tamed, people with a high temper like me will understand…hahaha! But I think this is the most groovy track on the record, melodic but still dirty and in your face with a tight & driving right hand picking. It is the most German sounding track on the record – you gotta play it loud!!!”

The »Pumpkins United World Tour« is going to be raw awesomeness! The news of Andi, Michi, Kai, Weiki, Sascha, Markus, and Dani sharing the same stage has caused shockwaves across the metal world. Allow us to briefly show off with some numbers: The super tour, with plenty of dates sold out for a while now, will be witnessed by more than 10,000 in Mexico City, 16,000 Brazilians will be rocking out in São Paulo, 9,000 have checked in at Santiago de Chile while in Stuttgart there’ll be 6,000; 8,000 can’t wait until the Milan show. Finally there will be ultimate mayhem at the mega show in Prague with 12,000 tickets sold as well as in Madrid with, believe it or not, 14,000 (!) Spanish Pumpkinheads. No wonder, the metal press feature hardly any other band on their cover stories, while the world’s biggest metal mag, Burrn!, dedicates an unbelievable 41-page spread to PUMPKINS UNITED. This world tour will be forever unforgettable for the entire band and far more than 100,000 HELLOWEEN maniacs all over the planet.
WHAT?!
As we all know, HELLOWEEN is addictive – and so the boys can’t wait for the tour to start either and are making yet another sensational announcement while hunkering down in the rehearsal room: PUMPKINS UNITED are not only preparing to share the live stage, but have also written and recorded an exclusive song together. This year, Christmas and New Year’s eve happen in October, because the aptly titled track ‘Pumpkins United’ blends everything that has made this band world-famous and a true trailblazer of an own sub genre: power guitar riffs, three-part guitar solos, double bass thunderstorms, and melodic-anthemic choruses soaring above all else, performed by all three singers in the band’s history! So this track is all about maximum “UNITED feeling” and a dream hardly anyone thought would come true. And now for the cherry on top: As a thank you to all fans for a quarter of a century of HELLOWEEN mania and decades of loyalty, ‘Pumpkins United’ will be available via helloween.org from October 13 as a FREE DOWNLOAD!

International heavy metallers BEAST IN BLACK will unleash their debut album »Berserker«, in three weeks via Nuclear Blast Records. To give their fans another musical taster of what to expect from this 10-track power package, the band founded by BATTLE BEAST guitarist Anton Kabanen have launched a lyric video for ‘Beast In Black’, over on YouTube. Based on a picture by Anato Finnstark / Finnstark Illustration, the clip perfectly underlines the energy of the album’s opening track.
Anton commented:
“As well as the band name, this track was inspired by a character from the »Berserk« manga. Though the lyrics are directly connected to that character they are also speaking in metaphors about something personal. It’s one of the most powerful songs on the album and Kasperi’s guitar solo in this one is probably the best one on the whole album!”

The Duke of Spook, WEDNESDAY 13, has revealed a brand new video for ‘Cadaverous‘, a track taken from his current »Condolences« album. Check it out here:
The clip plays up WEDNESDAY‘s schlocky horror reputation in their best horror B-movie style, as he and his band get ready for their European tour starting in Manchester on October 26th.
WEDNESDAY tells us: “‘Cadaverous’ is the most campy video that we’ve made so far. We really had fun with this one and it’s a throwback to all my spooky TV favourites like The Munsters and The Addams Family. I hope our fans enjoy this as much as we did making it.”
