Seattle, Washington-based power metal band Fifth Angel have filmed a music video for the track \u2018We Are Immortal\u2019. Directed by Lance Gergar, the clip can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Drummer Ken Mary commented: \u201cWe\u2019re very excited to reveal the third video and song from the new Fifth Angel concept album, When Angels Kill<\/em>. \u2018We Are Immortal\u2019 reveals the next part of the story that follows a global tyrant who has unleashed destruction on anyone that opposes him. Many in the opposition have now been extinguished, and \u2018We Are Immortal\u2019 is a song of resistance and defiance in the face of overwhelming odds and the darkest of storms. The song reveals hearts of courage and fearlessness in the young survivors, who are ready to meet whatever may come next head on. And to find out what comes next, one should buy the vinyl double album, make an evening of it, and sit down to enjoy this 70 minute audio \u2018movie\u2019!\u201d<\/p>\n

Fifth Angel issued fourth full-length studio album When Angels Kill<\/em> on June 16th, 2023 through Nuclear Blast Records.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Angels Kill<\/em> is actually more of a soundtrack to a movie that hasn\u2019t been made yet,\u201d said Fifth Angel drummer and producer Ken Mary. \u201cThis new album combines much of the subject matter from the last three albums and weaves a compelling story. It\u2019s very easy to visualize the \u2018movie\u2019 as you listen to this album. Overall, it\u2019s a deep and dark story, but the subjects that the band has always written about deal with the state of mankind. Themes of media deception, war, terrorism, oppression, betrayal, natural disasters and the battle for survival are all woven in. We even reference many of the previous albums song titles in the new lyrics, which to my knowledge has not been done before in a concept album. We hope the fans will feel that this album is something very special.\u201d<\/p>\n

The story of When Angels Kill<\/em> begins in the future, when Phoenix, a young man caught in a world undergoing enormous changes, determines that the cunning, deceptive, and ruthless global leader that is enslaving billions will not subjugate him. Although it seems pointless and even fatal to resist, Phoenix joins a remnant of people that fight on for a better world. Traitorous love, catastrophic events, isolation, and impending doom darken his days, but Phoenix somehow retains his will to survive. The story concludes with a surprise ending.<\/p>\n
