With The Magic Of Windfyre Steel

Imagine deserted volcanic wasteland, freezing winds and the all-embracing darkness of the longest winters on this planet: The obvious inspiration for rather vicious and somber tunes for lonely evening hours that the biggest part of Iceland's heavy music scene is known for. Who would even dare to think of tales about brave warriors and mystical creatures coming from such an island? Power metal seemed like a fairytale until 2017 when Reykjavík based sextet Power Paladin (originally founded as PALADIN) rose in quest of carrying out their uplifting tunes and finally proving everyone wrong. Highly praised as a "standout" act by The Reykjavík Grapevine, Power Paladin kept crafting material at Windfyre Studios, composing their 9-track strong debut album titled With The Magic Of Windfyre Steel. The opus is a historical landmark for both the group and Atomic Fire Records, being the label's first full-length release since it's recent founding.
