Finnish heavy metal sextet BATTLE BEAST have announced Unholy Savior as the name for their third studio album, which will be released in North America in early 2015.
“Music-wise, the songs have been expanded to a wider area as an effort to call out emotions close to those I myself had during the times of birth of these songs,” states BATTLE BEAST guitarist & backing vocalist Anton Kabanen about the new album’s musical offerings. “I thirst to go further as a human being and the music on this album represents a part of the ongoing spiritual journey - that's what I tend to I call it - which is my road onward.”
“Like always, I wrote songs about the ‘Berserk’ series as well. The reason is that I can strongly relate to that, especially to certain characters and to their way of thinking and feeling,” Anton adds.
The track listing for Unholy Savior is as follows:
01 – Lionheart
02 – Unholy Savior
03 – I Want The World… And Everything In It
04 – Madness
05 – Sea Of Dreams
06 – Speed And Danger
07 – Touch In The Night
08 – The Black Swordsman
09 – Hero’s Quest
10 – Far Far Away
11 – Angel Cry
