POWERWOLF on Wildlive (Live at Olympiahalle):
“We always knew that no words or short recap videos could truly capture what we experienced together during the Wolfsnächte 2024 tour. Every night was its own kind of magic – still, we wanted to find a way to hold on to those memories and share them in the most powerful way possible. That’s why we decided to record the full, massive, sold-out show at the Olympiahalle in Munich – to preserve just a piece of what we all felt on this tour. Wildlive (Live at Olympiahalle) is more than a live release. It’s a tribute and manifestation to the moments we created together.”

"Wildlive (Live at Olympiahalle)" captures POWERWOLF’s meteoric rise, offering a performance that a typical metal concert. Featuring a fire-breathing church organ, spectacular pyrotechnics, dark operetta-style storytelling, and engaging crowd interaction, this event showcases the band’s essence as a true power metal group. The performance will be released in multiple formats, including Blu-Ray, DVD, CD, and vinyl, as well as a Deluxe Boxset, Earbook, Mediabook, and various other Collector’s Editions that include exclusive bonus content.

On Wildlive (Live at Olympiahalle), each song is visually reimagined with a changing digital stage set, timed effects, and theatrical elements: monks with torches, falling snow on a burning piano, and a fiery execution scene that would make some of death metal's finest smile. Classics like “Army Of The Night”, “Amen & Attack”, “Armata Strigoi”, and “Demons Are a Girl’s Best Friend”  are brought to life in larger-than-life arrangements, while emotional tracks like the aforementioned “Alive or Undead” will strike the hearts of hardened metal fans..The dynamic between frontman Attila Dorn and organist Falk Maria Schlegel aims to make this night memorable through their synergy.

Powerwolf was formed over twenty years ago in Saarbrücken, Germany, by former members of the stoner rock band Rec Aim. The band adopted pseudonyms and created backstories that resonated with a metal audience. They have released ten albums, including last year's "Wake Up the Wicked." Powerwolf has captivated audiences worldwide with their eccentric and electric performances, featuring religious themes and imagery, as well as songs about werewolf and vampire legends.

  CoverArtwork Courtesy of San Pr Words Written by Anselm Anderson Today marks the final chapter of an emphatic trilogy by British Metalcore Heavyweights , Virtue in Vain . Nothing is All I Am ' is the third instalment exploring human emotions and psyche.  The trio began their journey in 2015 with their debut EP,  For All You Know is the Mask I Wore ,  focusing on the loss of identity, before 2019's   Dusk//Dawn looking at the consequences of a terrible night out, whilst 'Nothing is All I Am ' focuses on rebuilding a fractured mind.

The band replicates what many other British bands of the genre do, but they bring a story behind their music. Their emotional cries blend with powerful riffs and down-tuned instrumentals that resonate long after the music has stopped. Their...
