Still riding the high of their previous single “Winds of Time”, the band reveals a true old-school-style heavy metal gem, where they make the most out of their unique ability to authentically capture both the sonic and aesthetic feel of the late 70s and 80s classic metal era. Accompanied by a music video that takes you back to the glory days of MTV, “We Rise” delivers a big sound and a powerful message that is forged together to touch the hearts and souls of classic heavy metal fans.
The band comments:
“This track is the sonic and visual representation of many of our everyday reflections as it relates to finding peace and strength through unity. This message paired with our modern yet vintage sound come together to take you on an epic old school arena-rock style journey that will raise your spirits in a true rock n roll fashion.”
“We Rise” is the second single from the band’s highly anticipated second studio album Winds of Time, scheduled for worldwide release on October 17, 2025. The album is now available for pre-order on CD and Vinyl directly via the band’s website in the USA and via High Roller Records in Europe.
About the Band
Wings of Steel is a Los Angeles-based Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band founded by vocalist Leo Unnermark and guitarist Parker Halub in 2019.
Rooted primarily in the old-school style of hard rock and heavy metal from the 70’s and 80’s, the band's sound can be described as an epic and unique blend of those classic styles. Unnemark's bluesy touch and dynamically powerful vocal register, paired with Halub's bombastic riffs and expressive soloing, come together to form a distinctive and massive sound that fans of hard rock and heavy metal have been waiting for.
In 2022, the band released their debut EP “Wings of Steel” which quickly established the band as a force to be reckoned with within the underground heavy metal scene. Building on their momentum, the following year the band released their first full length album “Gates of Twilight”(2023), which is regarded by many as one of the best heavy metal albums in recent years.
Wings of Steel embarked on their first European tour in the spring of 2024, where they received praise for their ability to deliver energetic live performances at the same high caliber as on their studio releases. The energy of their live show was captured and highlighted on their live album “Live in France” (2024).
On June 13, 2025, the band revealed “Winds of Time," their most ambitious single and project to date. “Winds of Time” is a titanic track that comes with a music video for a total running time of over 10 minutes. With this single, the band demonstrates their unique position and sound in the current Heavy Metal scene.
To date, the band has played over a dozen shows in the United States and Europe, including performances at well renowned festivals and venues such as Heavy Week-End, Rock Hard Festival, The Whisky-A-Go-Go, Keep It True Festival, Up the Hammers Festival, and more.
