Final Strike Shares New Standalone Single "Beowulf"

Swedish power metal force Final Strike are back with their brand-new single "Beowulf," marking the band’s first standalone release since their highly acclaimed debut album "Finding Pieces." Following their celebrated contribution to the A Tribute To The Reaper sampler. "Beowulf" delivers a triumphant next chapter in the band’s rapidly rising legacy.

Fronted by Christian Eriksson (ex-Twilight Force), Final Strike once again showcases their unmistakable 80s-inspired power metal sound — fast, melodic, epic, and relentlessly energetic. With soaring vocals, razor-sharp twin guitars, thunderous bass, and driving double-kick drums, "Beowulf" is a true adrenaline rush for fans of classic heavy metal.

The song is inspired by the legendary saga of the Swedish Viking hero Beowulf and brings ancient myth to life through modern power metal intensity.

Christian comments:
"'Beowulf' is based on the saga about the Swedish Viking who was the king over 'Gutarna' (The Geats). The song is a tribute to his memory, how he went to Denmark to fight and defeat Grendel and later on a dragon that after the defeat ended his life.

"Musically it’s a fast paced “in your face” song with double kick drums and lots of double guitar parts alongside with epic keyboards and thunderous bass. If you are too lazy to hit the gym.. just listen to this and you’ll feel like you’ve been working out."

The music was written by Christian Eriksson and Martin Floberg, with lyrics by Christian Eriksson. The song was recorded by Final Strike in Norrtälje, Sweden, while the drums were recorded by Dewayne Hart at The Barn in Florida. Mixing and mastering were handled by Jonas Kjellgren, and the track was produced by Final Strike.
