Paul Di'Anno's Warhorse have announced their new self-titled album is now available worldwide on BraveWords Records. You can stream or order Paul Di'Anno's Warhorse, with a LIMITED EDITION SIGNED CARD (333 copies only) here.

When we thought that nothing could surprise us anymore in the heavy metal world, a 'miracle' happened recently in Zagreb! Iron Maiden icons Paul Di'Anno and Bruce Dickinson met for the first time and had a friendly chat right in Croatia. New video from the meeting can be viewed below:

By coincidence, Bruce was promoting his new album The Mandrake Project in Zagreb on tour on July 13, and on the same day, after Bruce's show, Paul Di'Anno had a live promotion and signing session of his first album with the Paul Di'Anno’s Warhorse project, due out July 19 via BraveWords Records. Check out a video of Di'Anno gifting Bruce a copy of the new album:

More footage of the meeting:

This was an exceptional opportunity for the two icons of heavy metal music and the legendary singers of the band Iron Maiden to meet for the first time after almost half a century. Both singers recently went through the most difficult moments in their lives. Bruce has been battling cancer, and Paul Di'Anno recently had an extremely complicated operation and is learning to walk again. Neither of them gave up, but fought with all their strength to be on tours again, surrounded by fans with new music and new projects. This is an exceptional night for the entire Iron Maiden community and for metal fans around the world, because it shows that Iron Maiden and everyone who was in that band, is one big family.

In the book 666 Days With The Beast, Paul Di'Anno's manager and author Stjepan Juras described all the key moments of Paul's recovery and new life, including the meeting with Steve Harris and Bruce Dickinson. A special limited edition of this book can be ordered exclusively at this location.

The success of the band's video, "Here Comes the Night" (see below) is just the beginning of what this band will show you in the days to come. Many of you have already heard that there is a fantastic Depeche Mode cover of "Precious" on the album, but you have not yet heard that this song will be the next video single with a wonderful story. Another interesting fact is that real drums were not played for this song, but it was done by computer, in order to capture the spirit of this song and the inimitable Depeche Mode as faithfully as possible. Are you waiting for this video like we are? Check out a sneak peek below:

Paul Di'Anno speaking about his new album, "Paul Di'Anno's Warhorse is my first studio project after many years of being away from the studio and not performing. I remember when we announced that we were recording an album in Croatia with completely unknown musicians, many were shocked and no one knew in which direction we would go. Warhorse exudes pure energy and reflects everything I went through while recording the album."

Hrvoje Madiraca adds, "This record is a product of hard work combined with the voice of the man, the myth and the legend of our dear Wrathchild! Old school metal you want. That is what you'll get!"

Ante Pupacic, known as Pupi continues, "When it comes to music, I've done all sorts of things, but I'm particularly proud of this album. Two years of work, composing, arranging, recording, editing, deleting, and so on. We went through all kinds of emotions, from euphoria to agony. Each song was carefully polished to achieve its current form. On the album, everyone added their touch, both Hrvoje and I, in terms of lyrics, music, and production, all ennobled by the powerful vocals of our legend, Paul Di'Anno."
