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

\u2018Wings Of Steel\u2019 was previously released as a digital single on July 19th, 2019 and is the first Burning Witches song recorded to feature new lead vocalist Laura Guldemond (Shadowrise). The Dutch born singer replaced Seraina Telli, whose departure was officially confirmed on June 8th, 2019.<\/p>\n

The EP version also features three live tracks recorded during the band\u2019s performance at the 2019 Wacken Open Air festival in Germany on July 31st.<\/p>\n

Burning Witches commented: \u201cWe are thrilled to present you with this limited edition collector\u2019s 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<\/em> vinyl EP. Have fun listening and crank it up to 11!\u201d<\/p>\n
