Lord Of The Lost and Feuerschwanz Release Campy Collab Single “Lords of Fyre”
Two German bands with the flair for the theatrics have joined forces to release a single that’s equal parts symphonic metal and renaissance fair-core. Not sure if that last part is an actual genre, but I felt like it perfectly encapsulated the campy cheese I consumed watching the accompanying video for the single “Lords Of Fyre”.
Featuring both Feuerschwanz and Lord Of The Lost, the song is a booming epic song that kinda feels like it would be at home with some of the cheesier parts of Manowar and medieval folk metal. It’s all about rising from ashes, preparing for battle, and how the metal gods imbued them with historic significance. Again, I’m not necessarily saying those are any of the lyrics or anything, but that’s the general vibe in this one.
Speaking of the track, Feuerschwanz’ Hodi said this whole thing came about from the mutual respect both bands had for one another.
“We’ve had a great friendship with Lord Of The Lost for a long time, even though we come from completely different musical worlds. For us, it was great fun and challenging at the same time to merge the two worlds into one!”
For those that don’t know, Lord Of The Lost are definitely more industrial in nature, where as Feuerschwanz has a deeper folk metal/symphonic/traditional heavy metal bent.
I’m sure a lot of our readers take metal too seriously to enjoy this sort of thing, but if you’re able to laugh and make fun of metal at the same time, you might be able to get a kick out of this. The instrumentation’s damn good though. Tell me you don’t want to bang your head when things go hard around the 2:25ish mark.
Oh and don’t get me started about how this will absolutely slap in European arenas. The folks across the pond eat this shit up and will absolutely sing along in unison. I bet that would be pretty fun… Shit, maybe I enjoy this a little bit…?
All of this comes after the two bands announced a big co-headlining tour through Germany next fall. If you’re heading to Deutschland next October, check out the tour dates below — maybe you can witness this combination for yourself.
