Gus G's Firewind Drop 'Firegod' Ahead of Greek Mythology Concept Album
Greek power metal outfit FIREWIND has debuted the music video for 'Firegod', a riff-heavy anthem inspired by the myth of Prometheus.
Greek power metal outfit FIREWIND has unveiled the official music video for "Firegod", the second single from their upcoming concept album, "Gods, Myths & Titans". Set for release on February 19, 2027, via the Frontiers Label Group's metal imprint BLKIIBLK, the record marks a significant new chapter for the band led by guitar virtuoso Gus G.
"Firegod" delves into the myth of Prometheus and his theft of fire from the gods. Gus G explains that the track remains true to the band's core identity: "Riff-driven, old-school metal with big melodic choruses & shredding solos." The upcoming LP serves as a cohesive journey through Greek mythology, featuring orchestrated arrangements and anthemic tracks like "The Legend Of Achilles" designed for crowd participation.
Musically speaking, the track is classic FIREWIND. Riff-driven, old-school metal with big melodic choruses & shredding solos.
The project also marks a reunion of sorts for the band's sonic identity, featuring the return of Henning Basse on vocals. Basse provides a distinct presence that complements the heavy metal attack and Gus G's signature technical performances. Following a twelve-track journey from "Prologue Sacrifice" to "Epilogue", the album is being positioned as a defining moment in the band's discography for 2027.
