{"product_id":"burning-sun-power-to-survive","title":"Burning Sun 'Power To Survive'","description":"\u003cp\u003eFounded in 2022 in Hungary by bassist Zoltán Papi, BURNING SUN is a rising force in the underground Power Metal scene. He was then joined by singer\/guitarist Pancho Ireland (also known from Merciless Law). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by the ’90s golden era of European Power Metal and taking its name from a Helloween song, the project channels soaring melodies, driving rhythms, and heroic storytelling. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe duo's debut album, Wake of Ashes, was released in 2023 via Stormspell Records. The album featured international collaborators and introduced listeners to the character of Emaly, who plays a major role in the band's identity as she appears on all artworks. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough the first record was partly inspired by the popular video game, World of Warcraft, the band decided to abandon this influence to tell their own stories. 2025 saw the release of Retribution via Metalizer Records, a full story concept album focused on revenge and salvation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fantasy-driven narrative was told with a combination of classic riffing and anthemic choruses. In early 2026, the band announced the arrival of singer and guitarist Nicolas Peter (Tyran, Invictus) and drummer Edmond Kulcsár (Gift Of Grave). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNicolas took over lead vocals, while Pancho decided to focus on his role as lead guitarist. The arrival of the new members brought a new era for Burning Sun, not only because of the expanded lineup but also in the form of their third album, “Power To Survive”. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by Nicolas Peter and Zoltán Papi, this high-energy album features 10 songs that are meant to help you get through hard times through its uplifting music which features Herbie Langhans (Firewind) as guest on “Emaly’s Hymn” and Alexandra Lioness (Jenner, Frozen Crown) as guest on “Over And Beyond”. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBurning Sun delivers the kind of metal that is rare nowadays, the kind of music that is rooted in Helloween, Gamma Ray, Edguy, Hammerfall and ’90s power metal in general. No compromises, only pure dedication and passion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1. Quest Divine \u003cbr\u003e2.
