BATTLE BEAST SHARES MUSIC VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE 'EYE OF THE STORM'

After re-signing with Nuclear Blast in early 2021, Finnish heavy metal sextet BATTLE BEAST is once again getting ready to unleash its force upon the world in the shape of its brand new masterpiece "Circus Of Doom". The album is set to be released on January 21, 2022 via Nuclear Blast Records, and in true BATTLE BEAST fashion, the 10 tracks blend true heavy metal with pop and rock-vibes, paired with Noora Louhimo's unique voice.

"Circus Of Doom" was recorded at JKB Studios in Helsinki, Finland and produced and mixed by keyboardist Janne Björkroth, while the stunning artwork was created by Jan Yrlund.

"Our goal was to make an interesting and absorbing album, with both lighter party songs and heavier stuff as well," explains Björkroth. "In a way the whole album is like a joyful day at the circus. Full of enchanting surprises and wild carnival atmosphere."

Today, the band has shared the official music video for the second single "Eye Of The Storm", directed by Tobias Andersson

Guitarist Joona Björkroth comments on the single: "'Eye Of The Storm' is a song about the one thing that keeps your boat floating when the storms of the world try to sink you. It's an empowering and uplifting song that works best with the volume turned way up to 11, so make sure to crank it up!"
