PRIMAL FEAR Release "Another Hero" Digital Single And Music Video; More Code Red Album Details Revealed

German metal commandos Primal Fear are finally back! Following the release of their chart-breaking album Metal Commando in 2020, the group have returned to unleash an 11-track magnum opus, titled Code Red, on September 1 via Atomic Fire.

Vocalist Ralf Scheepers underlines the song's lyrical topic, "Sometimes I wish there would be 'Another Hero' who shows mankind how to get along with each other in peace and harmony."

Additionally, Stan W. Decker (Angels Of Mercy - Live In Germany (2017), Apocalypse (2018), and I Will Be Gone (2021) by Primal Fear etc.) provided magnificent artwork.
