Burning Path - 'Burning Path' (official album stream)

«Heavy metal from Chile. True and traditional, inspired by the '70s and '80s. In memory of Andre “Hades” Adasme, Hypnos and Titan forge steel, carrying the eternal legacy of traditional metal forged by the Hammer.»

Οι Burning Path μας έρχονται από την πρωτεύουσα της Χιλής (Σαντιάγο). Διμελές συγκρότημα, το οποίο δημιουργήθηκε πέρυσι (2025) υπό μία έννοια ως η συνέχεια των Lucifer's Hammer. Στα τελειώματα του χειμώνα (στις 27 Φεβρουαρίου 2026) κυκλοφόρησαν το ομώνυμο ντεμπούτο τους σε cd, βινύλιο και σε ψηφιακή μορφή από την δισκογραφική εταιρεία Dying Victims Productions. Ακούμε τον... Ύπνο (Hypnos - Sebastián Inzunza) σε κιθάρα, μπάσο, πλήκτρα και τον... Τιτάνα (Titán - Rodrigo Adasme Crisostomo) σε φωνητικά, κιθάρα, τύμπανα.

Δελτίο τύπου: «Born from tragedy, Burning Path is the continuation of Chile’s beloved heavy metal heroes Lucifer's Hammer. In late December 2024, founding member Andre Adasme, AKA Hades, was murdered by a stranger.

His brother Rodrigo, AKA Titan, had a difficult task ahead of him. But eventually, Titan decided to keep Andre’s legacy alive along with longtime guitarist Hypnos and Burning Path was (re)born.

Titan decided to retire the Lucifer's Hammer moniker “because there is no other who can replace my brother’s leading role and character, who will forever be the signature of Lucifer's Hammer music.”

However, those whose hearts keep it true will be thrilled to hear the direction of Burning Path - “the same traditional heavy metal essence that has been our call for the last 13 years playing with Lucifer's Hammer”, Titan humbly states.

Witness the band’s “debut” full-length, Burning Path. With absolutely accurate artwork gloriously adoring its cover, Burning Path's self-titled debut picks right up where 2024’s Be and Exist left off: like an iron fist lined with velvet, a deceptively silky surge that drives deepest into the heart of mid ‘80s metal.

With Titan taking up the vocal duties as well as drums and guitar - and Hypnos, in kind, handling guitar, bass, and keyboards - the duo create a pistons-pumping juggernaut of melodic-yet-moody METAL, conveying electricity and energy no matter the tempo.

In fact, much of Burning Path hovers near a strutting mid-tempo, and is all the better for it: Burning Path are equally powerful when illustrating heroism or heartache.

As such, Be and Exist’s trace elements of prime Dokken, Heavy Pettin’, Diamond Head, Europe, Witch Cross, Virgin Steele, and even ‘80s Kiss at their most metal are resurgent here, once again rearranged and reformed into anthems entirely their own.

Hades may be much missed, but he’d be honored by the Burning Path his former bandmates are on!»
