December 3rd will see Gothenburg metal powerhouse Manimal release their forthcoming studio album, Armageddon. They have shared a blistering lyric video for their new single "Chains Of Fury", which perfectly emphazises the band's trademark sound of pure steel!

Manimal's loyalty to traditional heavy metal influences is evident, though their latest and much acclaimed 2018- album "Purgatorio" was a prime example of modern and trend-setting power metal characterised by musical enthusiasm, exceptional talent and new ideas. As expected of a band that claims Judas Priest, King Diamond and Queensrÿche as major influences on their sound since Day 1, Manimal's upcoming album is a high energy, in-your-face salute to the music that inspired them over the past 20 years.

The band's evolution between the upcoming Armageddon and their first album, The Darkest Room - released in 2009 - is unquestionable. Their songwriting has become tighter, stronger and bolder, and they have improved by leaps and bounds as musicians. Armageddon showcases their wide range of a heavy as hell sound, and one that will most likely win over the true hearts of both the old school and every modern metal fan.

After previously released singles "Forged In Metal", "The Inevitable End", the epic album title track and just recently, the thunderous album opener "Burn In Hell", today Manimal have unleashed another killer track taken from Armageddon! 

"I think this one stands out a bit from the rest of the songs on the album." Vocalist Samuel Nyman comments. "It has this grinding, almost hypnotizing groove and it's probably one of the heaviest tracks we've ever released. And the message it brings is clear - break loose from your chains of fury!

Once again we've been working with the much talented Andy Pilkington of Very Metal Art to visualize the song and I think he has really managed to capture the very core of the song this time as well."
