Greek Heavy Metallers NIGHTSTEEL Unleash Video for “Warlord’s Betrayal”

Greek Heavy Metallers NIGHTSTEEL Unleash Video for “Warlord’s Betrayal”; New album out April 11 on Cosmic Fire Records!

Greek heavy metallers NIGHTSTEEL are back with their blistering new single, “Warlord’s Betrayal”, that is sure to captivate fans of the band and many others! This crushing masterpiece features the band’s signature heavy riffing, thunderous drumming and the breathtaking vocals of Travis Wills (Crimson Glory), putting NIGHTSTEEL on the map as one of the new hot names in the heavy metal scene.

“Warlord’s Betrayal” is more than just a song – it’s the climactic continuation of the saga that began with NIGHTSTEEL’s self-titled debut single. Picking up where the first chapter left off, this tense and powerful track closes the curtain on the epic battles that have defined the band’s story-driven sound. Accompanied by a stunning lyric video, the single brings the narrative to life with intense, cinematic war-torn scenes that amplify the song’s raw energy and emotional depth.

“We wanted to take our fans deeper into the world we started building with our debut single”, says Bill. “‘Warlord’s Betrayal’ is the payoff – an unrelenting, betrayal-fueled finale that ties the story together while hitting harder than ever. This is the second song I wrote after ‘Nightsteel’, and Travis delivered the vocals exactly as I imagined. I wanted the song to have the perfect mix of power and emotion. It’s in a way related to the self-titled song, and that’s why the video is like a continuation of it. If you fancy the homonymous song, you’re gonna dig this one as well”.

“‘Warlord’s Betrayal’ is a great song, up tempo and in your face… definitely a song to get a speeding ticket with… great melodies and hooks, I hope you love it as much as I do”!, comments Travis Wills.

Guitarist Jasmin elaborates:

“Bill is a real perfectionist – nothing is finished until every detail is just right. I even reached a point where, even in my sleep, I saw myself shredding! This song is one of my favorites on the album, and I’m really proud of everything we achieved”.

Drummer Mike notes:

“Had a blast laying down the drums for this beast of a song. Shoutout to my buddy Bill for crafting this masterpiece and to Travis for crushing the vocals. Metalheads, this one’s for you”!

Fans of NIGHTSTEEL’s debut will recognize the seamless blend of musical ferocity and storytelling prowess, while newcomers will be drawn in by the sheer power of this heavy metal anthem. Available now, “Warlord’s Betrayal” invites listeners to hit play and experience the climactic end of this unforgettable metal odyssey.

About NIGHTSTEEL: 

Nightsteel is a brand-new Greek metal band that embodies the spirit of classic 80s metal, reviving the magic of the genre in a very special way. Their music will take you back to the old glory days of the 80’s when heavy metal music was on top of the game!

It all started back in 2022 with an idea that songwriter & bassist Bill Sam had and that is how Nightsteel was born. While working on some old demo songs along with new ones, he asked his friend and drummer Mike Foudotos to join the band and take the project to the next level.

After working with some local vocalists, Bill decided to go a step further and work with some of the most notable and up-and-coming vocalists in the metal scene. He first contacted Travis Wills (Crimson Glory, Infidel Rising), who was blown away by the songs and agreed to sing on the album. Unfortunately, due to Travis’ busy recording and touring schedule, he wasn’t able to finish all of the songs, so Bill also enlisted Craig Cairns (Tailgunner, ex Induction), Rob Lundgren (Reveal, Mystery Moon), and Mauro Elias to sing on the remaining songs. In addition, the virtuoso guitar player Igor Paspalj (Guitarist of the Year 2020 by Guitar World and Guitar Player magazines), agreed to play solos on two songs. The line-up was completed with Jasmin M. on guitars and keys.
