Stormhunter, a staple in the German metal scene since 1998, is set to release their fourth album, "Best Before: Death". Continuing their legacy of classic "German Heavy Metal," the band eschews keyboards for a more anthemic sound through choirs. Recorded at Iguana Studios with Christoph Brandes and featuring artwork by Timon Kokott, the album reflects on themes of death from various perspectives, making it their most personal work to date. With 11 tracks that rock through a mix of sophisticated guitar work and melodies, "Best Before: Death" promises to be a powerful addition to Stormhunter's discography.
