FIREWIND has reissued their classic Burning Earth CD (2003) on Leviathan Records in the US and Hydrant Records in Japan. The reissue has been remastered and includes three bonus tracks not previously available.

Guitarist Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE) states: “Burning Earth was a very important step for Firewind as we needed to create an even stronger follow up to our debut album Between Heaven and Hell. I wanted to create a killer record and finally get a chance to play some shows with Firewind and not just be a studio project. I remember it was a very inspiring period for me and the songs came to me so naturally. It seems that these days 'The Fire & The Fury' is a modern day classic instrumental track, but I almost put it together accidentally. I had this cool riff but wasn’t sure I would make it a vocal track. I started jamming and the main theme just came out. It’s no wonder this song is still a highlight of our live setlist and fans go crazy when we play it. I definitely felt we were doing something different and more fresh within our genre and this is why this album has stood the test of time and I still think to this day that Burning Earth is one of Firewind’s finest musical moments."
