Release Date: June 20th, 2023, The UK’s heavy metal heroes Forged In Black have returned! And they bring with them their second full length album for Spain’s Fighter Records – Lightning In The Ashes – featuring ten songs of supreme metal mastery; classic British heavy metal infused with the foreboding aura of doom, the melodious energy of power metal, the devastating riffs of thrash and the glorious sense of adventure and challenge that epitomises the best works of progressive metal.
Adorned in the stunning and unutterably metal artwork of Dan Goldsworthy (Accept, Haken, Sylosis etc), produced by James Curtis Thomas at the Essex Recording Studios (The Darkness, Voodoo Six, PISTON etc) and mastered at Abbey Road by Christian Wright (Pigsx7, Brian Ferry, You Me At Six etc.), Lightning In The Ashes is a mighty stride forward for the band that Powerplay Rock And Metal Magazine have dubbed “the next big thing in metal”. Prepare to be struck by lightning as Forged In Black bring down the hammer on June 20th!
