Brugg, Switzerland-based heavy metal band Burning Witches issued four-song 12-inch vinyl EP Wings Of Steel on December 6th, 2019 through Nuclear Blast Records. The EP was made available on black and coloured vinyl.

Burning Witches commented: “We are thrilled to present you with this limited edition collector’s item! It is the beginning of a new era with Laura and the three Wacken live songs are very special to us. It was our first time playing there, so it was really moving and exceptional – which is why we had to put that magic on the Wings Of Steel vinyl EP. Have fun listening and crank it up to 11!”
