Adventurers, heed the call of Icelandic newcomers POWER PALADIN as they have finally unleashed their debut album »With The Magic Of Windfyre Steel« via Atomic Fire Records! The six-piece kick-start their journey of conquering the hearts of power metal fanatics globally today with a record that delivers nine highly infectious anthems.

POWER PALADIN: "We still remember that moment after we just finished recording our first album with our no-name band on an island with a total number of inhabitants of less than 375,000, not that far from the North pole and suddenly got hit with a record deal and started to hear that people were actually anticipating the record. It was a kind of a weird situation to be in. We were also joking about how fun it would be to create an animated video for one of our songs and laughed at the idea cause we only know a tiny fraction of the work that is involved in creating such a video, and it is a lot. That's why we were even more surprised when RMIT University signalised their interest in making an animated video for our song 'Creatures Of The Night' as they usually choose from a "highly classified" list of bands that they work with. The whole process was very enjoyable and it was very fun to watch how the sketches slowly turned into form. We would like to thank RMIT University, Simon Norton, his students and all those who helped make this video become reality. It blew all our expectations out of the water and we think it could not have turned out better. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do."

Creatures of the Night (Atli Guðlaugsson)

Moonlight, the silver in stars
Reveal the light within yourself

Throughout the lands of the old
Fear grips you all into its realm

And on that bright starlit night
When the stillness of empty streets echo the candlelight

Right when the moon shining bright
Brought the heralds of unholy might

Death destroyer
Moonlight reveals
The inner evil of
Death destroyer
Rise and become the deadly
Creatures of the night

Stories of horror untold
Break down and bend the silver stars

Unholiest creatures of hell
Blasphemous monsters of the night

Endless hunger will drive
Distant howling of moonlight brings evil to your eyes

Nowhere to run or to hide
Yet the memory lingers on

Death destroyer
Moonlight reveals
The inner evil of
Death destroyer
Rise and become the deadly
Creatures of the night
