The third single from their seventh album Steelbound, set for release on October 17, 2025, via Nuclear Blast, Here We Are is a bold anthem of resilience and unity, featuring thunderous riffs and powerful vocals by Noora Louhimo. Songwriter Joona Björkroth describes it as capturing “that moment after the storm has passed,” celebrating perseverance. Pre-orders for CD, vinyl, and digital formats are available at battlebeast.bfan.link/steelbound-album. The 38-minute album blends classic heavy metal with 80s hard rock and cinematic synths, offering escapism and grit. The lineup includes Noora Louhimo (vocals), Eero Sipilä (bass), Joona Björkroth (guitars), Juuso Soinio (guitars), Janne Björkroth (keyboards), and Pyry Vikki (drums).
