With metal hymns like 'Heavy Metal Breakdown', Grave Digger have been one of
the most formative and influential bands on the German metal scene since the
early 1980s - 2020 is now heralding the 40th anniversary of the Teutonic metal
masters! Nothing has changed in the band's ethos, and yet Grave Digger sound
modern and timeless like never before. On their 20th studio album, the band
around frontman Chris Boltendahl completes their epic Highlands story, Fields
of Blood is the continuation of their legendary triology after "Tunes Of War"
and "The Clans Will Rise Again", and a true sound battle unique traditional
metal! Driving reef masterpieces like 'All For The Kingdom' or the epic hymn
'Lions Of The Sea' promise earwig and neck muscle training, at the same time
Fields Of Blood takes us into the vastness of Scotland on a journey through
explosive soundscapes. So it can not be ignored that the band parts of the
new long player even recorded in the Highlands of Scotland. As a very special
highlight of the album on 'Thousand Tears' none other than Battle Beast's Noora
with their incomparable voice ennobles the most moving metal ballad of the year
in a duet with Boltendahl! Even after 40 years, Grave Digger stand for unwavering,
pure steel metal, which still has surprises in store and celebrates such a special
band anniversary of one of the most successful German heavy metal pioneers in the
most glorious style!
