The heralds of Italian Epic Power Metal, DRAKKAR, have just released their new official video for the song “Knife In The Dark”!

Taken from their latest album, “Spread Your Wings”, “Knife In The Dark” is a song in the best tradition of band: powerful riffs paving the way for that infectious, earworm chorus that’ll have you singing along before you can say “Heavy Metal Is The Law”!

Populated by the characters of the novel “Claire Voyant: Helliger Quest” by author Diego Delpiano, that serves as a basis for the concept behind the album, the video is a dreamlike trip into the adventures world of Drakkar. Travel with us!

Italian Power Metal veterans DRAKKAR have announced that their new release, “When Lightning Strikes Twice”, will be out on May 25^th, 2022, again under the banners of Punishment 18 Records, that also published their latest effort “Chaos Lord” in 2021. The announcement is tied to the release of the lyrics video for the first single, “We Ride”.

“When Lightning Strikes Twice” is a full remix and remaster of Drakkar’s 2012 comeback album, “When Lightning Strikes”. Back in the day, it was the album that put Drakkar on the map again after a long hiatus; met with great reviews and beloved by old and new fans alike, the ambitious sci-fi concept record was the fuel that the band needed to get back as a prominent force in Italian Power Metal. This new version has been completely remixed and remastered from the original recording sessions; 90% of it is the original performances, only a few rhythm guitar tracks have been re-recorded because the hard disks storing them were damaged. However, the impressive work done by Mattia Stancioiu at Elnor Studio has given it a completely new life! Now-classic Drakkar songs like “We Ride”, “When Lightning Strikes” and “Revenge Is Done” sound better then ever, with increased power, clarity and feeling.

Lose yourself in the fascinating sci-fi story that will take you through time and space, mainly ispired by the works of comic book legends like Jack Kirby and Alan Moore, narrated through epic and bombastic power metal songs that apply the lesson of giants like Blind Guardian and Running Wild to create a deeply personal musical voyage.

A strictly limited 200 copies “10^th anniversary edition”, including a box set with gadgets, will be available exclusively on the band’s Bandcamp page (https://drakkarofficial.bandcamp.com/) and as a reward for the higher tiers of their Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/darianmetal).

Sometimes, even Lightning Strikes Twice!

The band spent most of 2019 writing and recording the album, which was supposed to be released in 2020, when… a world pandemic happened! Now it is finally ready for release, and it will be out before end of March! Recordings were held at Elnor Studio under sound engineer and producer supervisor, Mattia Stancioiu (Crimson Dawn, Labÿrinth, Sunstorm, Madhour). That’s metal for you all… Stay power!

Born in 1995, Drakkar is one of the prime movers of the Italian Power Metal scene, together with bands like Rhapsody Of Fire, Labÿrinth and Domine.
