Equilibrium announce new album ‘Equinox’ + release single/video ‘I’ll Be Thunder’

Author Benedetta Baldin - 1.10.2025

Cinematic, folk-metal trailblazers Equilibrium are thrilled to announce that their new studio album, “Equinox”, will be released on November 28th via Nuclear Blast Records. Today they’ve also released firey new single ‘I’ll Be Thunder‘ accompanied by a raw, earthy performance video.

Equilibrium commented:

‘I’ll Be Thunder’ is a very impulsive song that shows the experimental and uncompromising side of Equilibrium. Therefore we tried to emphasise this with a unique, archaic performance video. The whole visual concept, set design and costumes have been hand crafted by Jessica Rösch again. I love this song, because while the notes of it came intuitively to my mind, the lyrics are about self-empowerment, breaking free from limitations, and embracing one’s true strength and authenticity.
It is also the perfect moment to announce our upcoming album “Equinox”, which is all about authenticity, reconnection with and rediscovering our own art. It took a long time to go through this process since a lot has happened throughout the last few years in the history of Equilibrium. It represents the bright and dark side of our music and we can’t wait to share the whole thing with the world and enlighten this new chapter. The album contains all the cinematic, folky, harsh and soft elements an Equilibrium album should have.
