Induction release music video for futuristic new single ‘Dark Temptation’

Author Benedetta Baldin - 22.8.2025

Following a series of live dates in support of iconic metallers Savatage, their first-ever, frenetically-acclaimed appearance at Wacken Open Air and the previously-released single ‘Beyond Horizons,’ Induction strike again with their brand-new song ‘Dark Temptation’ – a track that fuses razor-sharp riffs, symphonic fire, and high-octane hooks into a relentless storm of sound!

Alongside today’s release and new album harbinger comes a visually stunning video, set in a high-tech sci-fi universe that mirrors the song’s futuristic energy and dark allure. It’s a bold step that brings Induction’s cinematic vision to the next level – combining crushing symphonic metal power with a world that feels larger than life! ‘Dark Temptation’ cements Induction’s reputation as one of the most exciting rising forces in modern power metal: epic, heavy, and unafraid to push boundaries.

Guitarist Tim Kanoa Hansen states:

With ‘Dark Temptation,’ we officially open the gates to our upcoming third album, “Love Kills!,” set for release in February 2026. This track marks the beginning of INDUCTION’s next chapter – where seduction meets danger, and love dances on the edge of the blade. It’s heavy, it’s dark, it’s sci-fi – and this is only the beginning. Let yourself be pulled into this forbidden tale and experience the thrill of ‘Dark Temptation,’ the first taste of what’s to come. You’ll be hungry for more!

Crafted at Hamburg, Germany’s Chameleon Studios and Boogie Park Studios, the song was produced by Hansen and mixed and mastered by Eike Freese in collaboration with the guitarist. After regrouping in 2024, ‘Dark Temptation’ marks the second track featuring singer Gabriele Gozzi, guitarist Justus Sahlman and drummer Markus “Maks” Felber in Induction’s band history.

In support of their forthcoming studio offering, the quintet have been confirmed as supporting act of Visions Of Atlantis’ and Warkings’ 2026 “Pirates & Kings Over Europe” tour, taking them to 20+ cities across the continent in February/March. Induction’s current itinerary can be found below!
