Finnish power metal outfit FROZEN LAND return with their third full-length, “Icemelter”, set for worldwide release on November 21, 2025 via Massacre Records on Digipak CD, limited vinyl LP and digital.
Alongside the album announcement, the band unleash the brand-new single “Dead End,” a hard-charging anthem that stares down life’s futility to find a paradoxical sense of peace. Anchored by relentless riffing and a fist-raised chorus, “Dead End” confronts the inevitability of decay and the liberation that comes from accepting it—an existential rallying cry that distills the album’s darker themes into four visceral minutes.
Listen to it here.
On “Icemelter”, FROZEN LAND push into their most aggressive territory to date, fusing unusually brutal, steel-edged guitar work with soaring, classic power-metal vocals and widescreen atmospheres. The result is a lean, muscular record that lands impact after impact while carrying a distinctly Finnish sense of melody and melancholy. Lyrically, the album threads short, unflinching vignettes about a world corroded by corruption, fear and spiritual exhaustion—nowhere more stark than on “Dead End.”
The album’s precision comes courtesy of a top-tier production team: mixed by Matias Kupiainen (Stratovarius), drums recorded at Sonic Pump Studios, Helsinki, and mastered by Elmo Syrjäläinen, with striking cover art by Andrey Vasilchenko. All music and lyrics were penned by Tuomas Hirvonen, channeling the band’s sharpened identity into eight tight, explosive tracks.
