Wings Of Steel Gates Of Twilight CD (Slipcase, 2025, High Roller Records)

Wings of Steel are one of the most exciting new forces in traditional heavy metal and hard rock, blending classic 80s power with modern precision. Formed in Los Angeles by vocalist Leo Unnermark and guitarist/bassist Parker Halub, the duo share a unified vision rooted in timeless metal, expressive vocals, and high-energy musicianship. 

After crafting their sound through years of collaboration, Wings of Steel officially debuted with their self-titled EP in 2022. The band quickly gained attention for their epic, blues-tinged heavy metal - a style described by Unnermark as “classic yet modern, heavy, flashy, energetic and genuine.”

Their first full-length album, Gates of Twilight, originally released independently in 2023, marks the band’s true breakout moment. The album earned strong acclaim across Europe, with Rock Hard magazine praising Unnermark’s soaring vocals as a powerful blend of Geoff Tate and Bruce Dickinson. The record showcases the band’s commitment to meticulous songwriting, dynamic arrangements, and authentic heavy metal spirit.

In 2024, Wings of Steel partnered with High Roller Records for the album’s first official international release on CD and vinyl, allowing the band to expand their reach while maintaining ownership of their music. 

Gates of Twilight stands as a defining statement of a rising band poised to carry the banner of traditional metal into the future - a must-have for fans of classic heavy metal, NWOTHM, and powerful melodic vocals. Wings of Steel are one of the shining lights of the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal Movement, with millions of hits, tours with Sabaton in the USA and European festival stages with Iron Maiden.
