Greek melodic Power metal masters Firewind, who are continuing to promote their latest album Immortals on a European tour together with Rage, have launched a new video clip for the track We Defy now.
‘Firewind guitarist and bandleader Gus G. checked in with the following comment from the road:’“Hello friends and Happy New Year! We’ve kicked off 2018 in a great way, touring all over Europe with the legendary Rage. The first few shows of the tour have been insane!
In December, we captured some of this magic on camera when we played our hometown Thessaloniki inGreece. The video for the song ‘We Defy’ gives you an idea of the excitement and energy at a FIREWIND show. We hope you enjoy it and hope to see you at a show!’

Next to the standard jewel case CD and Digital Download formats, “Immortals” is also released as LP on 180gr vinyl with a poster as well as the entire album on CD as bonus. Additionally, there is also a limited edition Mediabook CD with expanded booklet, 3 stickers and a bonus track.
