New Firewind is always good news.

 

[Bryan316]

They left such a solid impact when they came to Detroit. The audience was stunned. ABOUT DAMN TIME For a new album!!!

 

[Diamond45]

New Firewind is always good news.

+1 You know this will be a blind buy for me. Hope they go on tour in 2012 and hit Jaxx yet again.... always a great show.

New Firewind is always good news.

I'll second that. And I hope they'll tour again around here for that new album, even thought the crowds were not stellar for their last tour.

A co-headline PRIMAL FEAR / FIREWIND tour would be something killer IMO.

That would be a great tour indeed. It would bring out literally tens of people.

In London a 500 capacity club would be packed for a PF/Firewind co headline tour. That's a point, I don't think I've ever seen PF live yet. How strange.

 

[Diamond45]

It would bring out literally tens of people.

This. But the tens of people will have a great time being entertained by a great band.

Saw them in New York at the Gramercy,they were fuckin awesome, although not that many people were there. I think Dream Theater were playing somewhere else not to far from there so that's probably why so few. Can't wait for new cd should be kiler!!!

 

[Mavros]

Losing My Mind almost has an Alice in Chains feel to my ears in the chorus.

 

[Fire breath]

The AIC sound comes from the way he says yeahhhhhhhhhhaaaa lol

 

[Metaldrumz]

Just got the promo today, and WOWZA! Could be the best Firewind album to date, and for a diehard fan like me....that is saying something!

From http://www.bravewords.com/news/189659 :

Having just returned from some successful shows in Asia, Greek melodic metallers FIREWIND debut their newest video, off their current album, Few Against Many. The clip, for the song 'Edge Of A Dream' (featuring APOCALYPTICA) was directed by the band’s own Bob Katsionis for Progressive Vision Group, and brings the classy feel of metal ballads back into a modern spotlight.

Gus G. checked in to comment about the clip as follows: “We shot the video for 'Edge Of A Dream' earlier this year in Greece. You can see the beautiful landscapes we caught on film and I assure you that Petros and Jo didn't hold it against us for not appearing in the clip! Actually this clip was directed by our band member Bob Katsionis, who is also an acclaimed video director. He has directed the clip for 'Head Up High' back in 2008 among others. I think he has done an excellent job once again! Enjoy!”

Check out the video below:

It's good, but I think they're slipping a little. I hope they do a US tour for this album, maybe with Gus's new connection with Ozzy FW will give them some reflected glory and a chance to go out and do a solid headlining run.

It didn't help them much when they toured here last year. Attendance was dismal. There were more people in the bands that toured than there were in the audience.

I'm with you. The new album has good songs, but is far to be as excellent as their last 3 ones IMO.

As for a tour, I'd love to see them again, but the poor turnout of the last tour might prevent this, sadly...
