2024 was a triumphant year for international symphonic metal frontrunners Visions Of Atlantis. The release of their latest full-length album, “Pirates II – Armada”, marks the band’s most successful record to date, climbing to top positions on international charts, including #5 on the German and Austrian Official Album Charts, #4 on the UK Rock & Metal Charts, and #2 on the US Hard Music Album Charts, to name a few. The summer and fall were filled with extensive touring, enchanting their devoted fans across Europe and the UK.
But pirates never rest, nor do the raging seas! Immediately after their tour, Visions Of Atlantis surprised fans with another stunner: the launch of the digital live series “Armada Live Over Europe”. By releasing live songs and videos throughout recent and upcoming weeks, the symphonic metallers have kept excitement levels at an all-time high. So far, eight videos have been released, capturing the explosive energy of a Visions Of Atlantis live show and allowing listeners to relive the incomparable spirit of their recent tour from the comfort of home.
Today, the series continues with the fan-favorite high-energy track, “Hellfire”, performed live in Pratteln on October 17, 2024. The track features a visceral guitar solo and a stunning vocal performance by pirate queen Clémentine Delauney and her captain, Michele Guaitoli. Alongside its availability on all digital platforms, the live series will culminate in a five-part digital live album, which can now be pre-ordered.
For fans in North America, the live album will be the perfect way to warm up for Visions Of Atlantis’s upcoming tour, taking place in April 2025. Tickets for this adventurous ride are on sale now, and fans won’t want to miss the unique VIP upgrade, which includes an exclusive acoustic set performed for a small audience before the show—creating memories to last a lifetime!
This one is for anyone waking up and finding their own strength and voice again. For anyone tired of listening to whispers that urge us to dim our light. ‘Hellfire’ represents strong minds, unafraid to carve their own paths and unconcerned with others’ opinions. It’s the chant of rebels fighting against those who abuse power to manipulate others. May we all reclaim power over our own lives. Clémentine Delauney
