British Skyrim themed power metal band Battle Born have just released their song "Bring the Metal Back". The track is from the upcoming CD Battle Born which will be released in June.
Band comments on new track: "'Bring the Metal Back' was the first track written for our upcoming debut EP. The song calls to all true Sons of Skyrim to help us reclaim Metal from the hands of our devious foes."
Personally, if you’re into power metal, or of the famous video game, I think you can’t go wrong with this song. Whether that’ll be telling of the upcoming EP remains to be seen, but when it drops, the cries of war will be upon us.
You can pre-order the upcoming CD Battle Born through the band’s Bandcamp.

Jack Reynolds - Vocals (also in Bykürius and Asira)
Will Kerr - Guitars, Keyboards
Tom O'Dell - Guitars, Vocals (Track 4) (also in Dwarrowdelf and Deavhronun)
