Finnish metal band BATTLE BEAST will unleash their seventh studio album, Steelbound, this October through Nuclear Blast. The official video for the record’s fourth single, “Angel Of Midnight,” is now available to watch.
“Angel Of Midnight” is “built on a catchy hard rock riff, bouncing synths, and the soaring, powerful vocals of Noora Louhimo, once again demonstrat[ing] 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.”
BATTLE BEAST songwriter and bassist Eero Sipilä comments: “I really had an internal battle with writing this one. We’re a heavy metal band. Will we be burned at the stake for making a hard rock tune with romantic notions? Then it hit me: We’re BATTLE BEAST — we can do whatever the hell we want. ‘Midnight’ nods deeply to BON JOVI, DEF LEPPARD, WHITESNAKE — all the greats — and makes no qualms about it. So let the feeling carry you, and crank it like it’s 1987.”
