Warkings bring the Apocalypse with “Armageddon”

Power metal warriors Warkings have stormed back from Valhalla with their fifth album, Armageddon, set to drop July 4, 2025, via Napalm Records. Armed with thunderous anthems and joined by the sorceress Morgana le Fay, the quintet—Roman Tribune, Viking, Crusader, Spartan, and their mystical ally—unleashes a sonic saga of history’s most cataclysmic battles. Since their 2018 debut, Warkings have conquered stages alongside Powerwolf and Hammerfall, earning a rabid legion of fans chanting their hymns at Wacken and beyond.

Armageddon dives into pivotal conquests that reshaped the world. The title track, out now with an epic video, relives the Viking raid on Lindisfarne in 793—a merciless assault that felt like divine wrath to the monks, brought to life with a storm of riffs and rhythms. “Genghis Khan,” featuring Orden Ogan, channels the Mongol hordes’ relentless precision, while “Hangman’s Night” with Dominum’s Dr. Dead mourns the Templars’ betrayal in 1307. The climax, “Kings of Ragnarök,” unites fans in a mythic call-to-arms as gods and monsters collide.

“These are the stories of warriors at the edge of their own end,” the band declares. Pre-order Armageddon now at Napalm’s store and join the battle—this is Warkings’ most triumphant war cry yet!
