Swedish symphonic metal warriors TUNGSTEN are proud to announce the release of their fourth album, The Grand Inferno, on October 18th, 2024, via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). The Grand Inferno will be the band’s first album released through RPM, and it promises a powerful fusion of dynamic instrumentation and captivating melodies. The band weaves their signature blend of fantastical whimsy and ferocious intensity throughout the album, taking listeners on a journey through the colorful world they have designed with their music.
On The Grand Inferno, TUNGSTEN has honed their unique ability to combine a classic, nostalgic power metal feel with modern electronic and industrial influences. Throughout the album, a sense of wonder and excitement underpins the raw emotions at the heart of the songs. Catchy melodies, anthemic singalong choruses, and multifaceted vocal deliveries give each song a unique, memorable flair. Even in its darker moments, the music glows with the comforting warmth of power metal’s stylistic cornerstones.

As a result, The Grand Inferno is sure to delight both longtime fans and newcomers to TUNGSTEN’s world.
TUNGSTEN’s collaboration with RPM has set the band up to reach new heights in their career. Drummer Anders Johansson comments, “Reigning Phoenix Music may be a new label, but the people at RPM are some of the most experienced in the industry. We are really looking forward to seeing what we can accomplish together.“
RPM label strategist Nils Wasko adds, “I am thrilled that TUNGSTEN have chosen Reigning Phoenix Music for their next career stage. The RPM team and I couldn’t be more excited to work with TUNGSTEN, to delight people with their music and to leave a new footprint in the world of catchy power metal tunes. The new album will be such a major step forward for them, we can’t wait to roll out single by single now.“
