Powerwolf - '1589' (official music video)

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Face the call of force divine,
Fight under torment and fire,
Terminate his fate on October Twenty Eight,
Sentence a werewolf, a beast!

Deep in the night,
Where the hunted and hatred circle
The wolf in the wild
And in pale lunar light,
In the shape of the savage,
Guided by anger that blind

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
In the Stump Wolf's killing twilight,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Call and fight, sacrify,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
In the name of the higher mighty,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Torture awaits tonight!

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Said the murderer was lupine,
Women and children devoured,
Slayed on full-moon night,
Left but traces of the bites
One hand that phantom unleased!

Creep through the light,
In his fever and madness,
Hunter and victim alike!

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
In the Stump Wolf's killing twilight,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Call and fight, sacrify,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
In the name of the higher mighty,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Torture awaits tonight!

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
With all spectators, stand in line
Head off, break up this beast!

Feast on his cries, as the torture is calling,
Hear as the streets tear the night,
Burning flames of a pyre,
And the crowd they are roaring,
Stare as beheaded he lies!

Fifteen Eighty Nine,
In the night of a thousand fires
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Born a wild, died a lie,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
By the hand of a calling pyre,
Fifteen Eighty Nine,
Etched beyond your time!

Δελτίο τύπου: «Powerwolf -a band that fills the hearts of every heavy metal fan with joy- will release their highly-anticipated new studio album, Wake Up The Wicked, on July 26, 2024 via Napalm Records! With several #1 chart entries and multiple gold and platinum records, Powerwolf is undoubtedly one of the most successful current heavy metal bands worldwide.

Headline and premium slots at premier rock and metal festivals like Wacken, Hellfest or Graspop, as well as massive sold-out arena shows have further solidified the Wolfpack’s standing at the very top of the scene.

Powerwolf’s high quality releases are steadily praised by critics and fans alike, building upon the successful reach of their songs and impressive official music videos, which have been streamed tens of millions of times across platforms to date.

Wake Up The Wicked -the highly anticipated successor to the extremely successful previous studio album, Call Of The Wild (2021)- will be released just in time for the award-winning band’s first ever full North American tour, starting in August 2024, followed by their biggest European headline tour to date, the Wolfsnächte 2024.

Wake Up The Wicked is once again produced by the outstanding Joost van den Broek at Sandlane Recording Facilities and marks a new benchmark and undisputed career highlight for the band. The new album is hard, surprising and full of variety.

While staying true to their established, loved sound, Powerwolf go one step further and showcase a different facet of their deft musical and technical skills. This is evident, for example, on the outstanding single “1589”, which is based on a true story from the 16 th century.

20 years after their formation in 2004, Powerwolf are expanding their repertoire with the highest quality and adding many future live hits to their extraordinary discography. Wake Up The Wicked is yet another statement cementing the status of the band as a leading force in the world of heavy metal!»
