German power metal force Iron Savior have unleashed a new single and visualizer, “Light In The Dark,” ahead of their upcoming album Deathbringer, out November 13 via Frontiers Music Srl.
“The third single ‘Light In The Dark’ is part of the epic Iron Savior story line, which started 30 years ago when I wrote the lyrics for the self-titled debut album,” says vocalist Piet Sielck. “It’s a story about hope and desperation, bravery and determination, life and death, darkness and light… Just like sometimes in real life. With the chorus section as the heart of the song, this speed attack will make you see the light in the dark before your imaginary eyes…”

Back To The Concept Album
The Hamburg outfit returns to the concept format here. After 200 years of peace, the galaxy is once again on the brink: the Shadows, an insectoid species and ancient enemy of mankind, have returned. Aboard the gigantic Deathbringer vessel, their immortal Queen has preserved the last remnants of her species inside an eternal digital hive, sustained by the life force of countless worlds. The Iron Savior and the Alliance now face an enemy more powerful than ever.
The album follows the third instalment of the Reforged series, where the band completely re-recorded songs from their Noise Records era, plus a covers album. It also arrives as they celebrate 30 years together.
Every track leans on the anthemic character that has always been one of their strengths. “Climbing Higher” delivers a motivational boost, “Light In The Dark” heads into melodic speed metal territory, the fast title track grabs you immediately, and the stomping “Creature’s Tale” stands out as another highlight.
As always, Sielck produced, mixed and mastered the album himself at his Powerhouse Studio, and wrote all the music and lyrics. It follows 2023’s Firestar.
