Gods, Myths & Titans

Gods, Myths & Titans is a studio album by the Greek band Firewind, a concept album built on Greek mythology, following Stand United (2024). It is their first album for BLKIIBLK, the metal label of Frontiers Label Group, with a release date of 19 February 2027; it was announced on 10 September 2026. Gus G, the band's leader and guitarist, says a Greek-mythology concept album was an idea they had held for a long time; it took two years, and the aim was the most epic record in the band's history. Each song opens onto a different myth, and orchestral and cinematic elements sit on top of their classic metal sound. Felipe Machado drew an artwork for every song. Three of the twelve tracks, "Prologue Sacrifice", "Prelude The Chosen One" and "Epilogue", run under a minute and a half. Henning Basse, who sang on Immortals in 2017, is back at the microphone. Herbie Langhans, the singer of Firewind (2020) and Stand United (2024), stepped down in November 2025 because his Avantasia schedule kept clashing, and Basse's return was announced with the BLKIIBLK deal. The line-up is Gus G on guitar and keyboards, Basse on vocals, Petros Christo on bass and Johan Nunez on drums. The first single, "The Legend Of Achilles", takes the hero Achilles as its subject; its lyric video went up on BLKIIBLK's channel on 10 September 2026, and BURRN! reports that the song, which has a classical-guitar solo, was first played live at ProgPower USA XXV in Atlanta. Gus G also joined King Diamond in July 2026. The CD comes as a standard edition (BBCD1629, EAN 8024391162927) and a digipak (BBCD1629D, EAN 8024391162941) in a fully illustrated six-page package, which the label's shop lists with a Gus G signature pick. No Japanese edition had been announced as of October 2026.
