Inner Axis - 'Burn With Me' (official music video)

Burn with me
Come on let’s burn
Burn with me

I am the one who betrays
The lord of the lies
I admit no mistakes
A devil in disguise
I will talk to you sweet
I am the hangman and the judge
I am a shadow of the past
And the future and the touch

I‘m not a saint - i’m just a sinner
But as a rule sinners are winners

Come on and burn with me
Come on and you will see
The heat will set us free
Come on and burn with me
Come on and let’s go down
Below in flames we‘ll drown
The keeper of the key
Come on and reign with me - the world

Let us bark at the moon
Others lock themselves in
Let us enjoy our bloom
Our lust and our sin
The point of no return
A pile of pillows as a pyre
I am going to make you burn
Get lost in our desire
Come on and reign with me - in hell

Inner Axis: συγκρότημα κλασικού heavy metal εκ Γερμανίας. Δημιουργήθηκαν (ως Midgard) στα τέλη του προηγούμενου αιώνα και μετά από τρία demos, το 2008, μετονομάσθηκαν σε Inner Axis. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει δύο δίσκους με πιο πρόσφατο το album "We Live by the Steel" που "βγήκε" προ επταετίας.

Την τελευταία τριετία επικοινωνούν την μουσική τους μέσω singles. Τέσσερα έχουν κυκλοφορήσει, τα οποία οδηγούν στο νέο full length album της Γερμανικής μπάντας με τον Έλληνα κιθαρίστα (Ζαχαρίας Δρόσος). "Midnight Forces" ο τίτλος και αναμένεται τον επόμενο μήνα μέσω της δισκογραφικής εταιρείας Fastball Music...

Δελτίο τύπου: «With their new album “Midnight Forces”, the heavy metal band Inner Axis from Kiel / North Germany is consistently continuing the path that has already attracted a lot of attention with their two previous singles “Steelbladed Avenger” and “Midnight Hunter” and the corresponding video clips.

The third album following “Into The Storm” (2011) and “We Live By The Steel” (2017) was again mixed and mastered at Pitchblack Studio. As for the previously released singles, the entire artwork was once again designed by Jan Yrlund (Manowar, Battle Beast, Stratovarius, Testament).

Musically, the band and their new guitarist Nino Helfrich work together even better so much that the ten songs sound very homogeneously and have gained a lot of punch and catchiness.

And yet the band never loses its connection to classic heavy metal. The tracks are peppered with groovy guitar solos and epic, surging choruses, which can only fully unfold in the interaction between the musical presence and performance, frontman Kai and the audience, at their live shows.

Thematically, the songs have a strong relation to pop and film culture.

Titles like “This Is The Way” (Bounty Hunter, The Mandalorian), “Strike Of The Cobra” (Cobra Kai), “Evil Dead” as well as “Spartan War-Cry” and “Master & Commander” give clear evidence of the lyrical inspiration, without pandering too much to the originals.

These stylistics can also be found in the music videos, some of which tell an independent story.

In addition to the two singles “Steelbladed Avenger” and “Midnight Hunter”, which were released as a download and as a 12” double single in 2021, the single “Burn With Me” including a video clip was released as a foretaste at the end of 2023.

“Master & Commander” will follow in February 2024 with a video clip as well. Before the album release in mid-March, “Evil Dead” will be released followed by “This Is The Way”, which means that Inner Axis have filled up the spring time more than extensively.

The album “Midnight Forces” will be released as a 6-page digifile plus poster and as a 12" vinyl on Fastball Music / BOB-MEDIA.»
