I think back to 14 year old me who would have refused to acknowledge anything that didn't have blast beats, downtuned guitars, harsh vocals and lyrics exclusively about death as being metal, and now 34 year old me is quite comfortable singing "I wanna fly away on a unicorn" at the top of my lungs.

I felt the same way when Unleash the Archers' album "Abyss" opened with the line "My mountain is gone, I'm surrounded by steel." Just knowing it would be a sequel to "Apex" got me so hyped.

I can’t believe I just watched a metal song about a Viking that was praying for a unicorn he could fly away on. Millennial Metal is to much, I’m going to stick with 80s and 90s Metal.

[@mandalovescatspandas1781]

Listening to power metal is like listening to the adventure you see in your dreams~

[@GradeAMolvanian]

There is a weird meta-story between this and Angus McSIX. New Angus (in univsrse) is trying to break away from what was laid before him (By old Angus) and forge a separate destiny, and in reality is also trying to add his own identity as a musician as he's a different performer to the previous one. Winkler's song is very unsubtly a break up song about the band, where he says he'll be better without them. Both are about people trying to forge their own identity in a way, moving away from what was to find new heights. The Gloryhammer song wasn't meant to be meta but in a weird way it works.

[@flyingpiggys]

Exactly! People keep trying to bash Master of the Universe for sounding like a song to bash Gloryhammer, but in reality it's a song Thomas wrote to show his development and what he's become. For me I look forward to the journeys of the new Angus McFife and Angus McSix.

[@thomas.moerman]

Perhaps, in a alternate universe of infinitesimal probability, both bands settle their differences and form a powermetalfusionhyperband.

[@forkliftposter]

@@thomas.moerman Both canonically exist in the same universe in the band lore, but old Angus got catapulted something like a thousand years into the past, so it is possible, but somewhat unlikely with the timey wimey bullshit if you catch my drift

[@thegamesforreal1673]

@@forkliftposter This is simply not true. Gloryhammer has never released anything official that states that Thomas' angus still exists or time travelled. Angus McFife XIII died at the end of the third album, and with him, Thomas' portrayal of the character as Angus McFife died as well. You can like Angus McSix, that's perfectly fine, but let's not pretend that it's somehow still a part of Gloryhammer even just in story. It's not, Winkler is done as Angus McFife. Anything he makes will at best be his own new canon, or at worst be his little unofficial Gloryhammer fan-fiction spin-off.

[@mitchlogan4796]

I wanna fly away on a unicorn To a land of freedom and light But I know that my destiny Is to die in the ultimate fight I wanna fly away cross the galaxy To discover the force that's inside of me I wanna fly away I have discovered there's a world beyond Dundee A vast eternal sea of stars I've crossed the wastelands from the mountains to the sea My quest is neverending I wanna fly away on a unicorn To a land of freedom and light But I know that my destiny Is to die in the ultimate fight I wanna fly away cross the galaxy To discover the force that's inside of me I wanna fly away The crystal citadel of Cowdenbeath is mine This astral hammer holds the key (Fragments of a fallen star) For countless centuries we've walked the cosmic line It's time to break the prophecy (Anstruther's dark prophecy) By the power of this amulet I wield (This amulet I wield) I'll cross the threshold to a universe of steel I wanna fly away on a unicorn To a land of freedom and light But I know that my destiny Is to die in the ultimate fight I wanna fly away cross the galaxy To discover the force that's inside of me I wanna fly away On a quest that is calling me To the other side of the galaxy I know I'll find my destiny In outer space in 1993 Yeah! I wanna fly away on a unicorn To a land of freedom and light But I know that my destiny Is the... Kingdom of Fife I wanna fly away cross the galaxy To discover the force that's inside of me I wanna fly away I wanna fly away I wanna fly away Oh yeah I wanna fly away

I will admit I was skeptical at first, but honestly, this is a really good song, I feel Like Gloryhammer is still on the right path

[@arsxxmoriendi]

yeah, but Thomas' vocals are what set Gloryhammer apart from other power metal bands. The edge is gone and so is my interest.

[@llewelynshingler2173]

This new guy has a way to go but he is showing promise.

It's kinda like new vs old Dragonforce. Still a great band, but it feels a bit off.

NGL, Sozos is going to take some getting used to. That's nothing against him, but Thomas' voice is just so iconic for this band.

[@musikrausch2675]

They still have their sound but regardless of that I miss Thomas. Sozos does a great job, absolutely no shame on him but Thomas voice is what I know them for and what I associate with their songs. It's going to be hard to get used to it.

This is a banger. I just wish they hadn't kicked out Thomas Winkler:( You just can't replace Angus McFife edit: I like the new singer's voice, but it just doesn't feel the same. Still pretty cool tho!

[@indominusfett2509]

I completely agree. But having said that they did pick a good replacement.

[@pochoclowo]

@@indominusfett2509 Yeah, at least the new singer sounds cool:)

[@Jurigag]

Yea, Thomas voice was just ideal with previous songs. I don't know if they will ever feel the same live with new voice.

[@eliskapinkeleeza3199]

I agree... Gloryhammer, please give to the new singer a brand new character, he's not Thomas and definitely not Angus McFife. He's pretty cool and deservers more, that be the copy of Angus.

[@Sawtooth44]

im just now curious on what happened to Thomas you said he was kicked out but the reason why is not given although lorewise it makes sense that there wouldent be any more to the lineage of Angus McFife since threw himself into a volcano on the previous albums last song

Deep down inside we all want to fly away on a unicorn into our childhood dream worlds.

[@TheMightyHazz]

I was worried at first, changing singers is always risky BUT this is a fucking banger and I'm looking forwards to hearing more. I'll miss Tom's vocals but the old songs aren't going anywhere

[@Xandar12]

I see the eternal tale of Gloryhammer have a new protagonist, a new hammer in the darkness, a new Hammervenger of Fife, the Angus McFife the Fourteenth. But I shall remain with a hero, a legend, a memory, Angus McFife Thirteenth for eternity.

[@briang.2218]

Upon rewatch, one thing I like about the singing voice for this Angus is that he isn't trying to emulate Winkler's Angus I or XIII, he seems to have a softer tone, especially in that intro. I wonder if that will feature also in the characterizations of each character -- Angus I and XIII were noble-hearted but delighted in the thrill of combat and conquest, whereas this Angus (I've been told he's the V?) may be a bit more of a reluctant hero, longing instead for a more peaceable and serene time. If absolutely necessary, however, he seems willing to fight and die nonetheless, though yearning always for the "land of freedom and light" where he might rest.

[@zimmy9239]

Honestly, it almost sounds like a prequel of some sort. He mentions that he'll find his destiny in outer space in 1993. Maybe this is like Angus McFife the V or something?

[@CrusadiaIX]

@@vsGoliath96 Nah, that implies he's going forward in the timeline from Angus McFife XIII, who was from 1992 and then went back through the Terrorvortex into a post-apocalyptic Dundee from the original Tales From the Kingdom of Fife. So this is either his son or a multiversal replacement.
