Swedish heavy metal force, Lancer, have released their fourth studio album, Tempest. To celebrate release day, Lancer also reveal a new lyric video for the album opening track, "Purest Power".

The song title says it all, but still the track reveals a lot of new sides within the bands genre. "It was one of the first songs written for this album, with the original idea dating back to 2018. Doing a majestic chorus in 5/4 time signature is a new move for Lancer, widening their musical landscape. Lyrically it's about rising up to madness, that we the people have the power to get rid of tyranny and injustice. Or if you'd rather, we are singing about ourselves being the best and most powerful metal band on the planet!", comments the band.
