Edmonton, AB metallers Striker are ready to set out on a new adventure with their forthcoming album “Stand in the Fire” being released via their own Record “Breaking Records” label on February 5th, 2016 and before it drops, the band is offering fans a FREE download of their new track “Too Late” here.
In addition to unleashing “Too Late”, Striker has posted a pre-order video explaining their campaign and perks they're giving to fans such as the chance to pick cover songs, set up special shows (how about a kegger!) and details of limited edition artwork and merch options. The pre-order runs from Nov 13 to Dec 10, 2015. Full pre-order details can be found here. Pre-Order video can also be seen below.
“Stand in the Fire” is Striker's most uncompromising record to date. A record packed with incredible riffs and colossal anthems, all laced together with epic harmonies. Inspired by legendary bands like Iron Maiden, Striker wear their hearts firmly on their battle jackets, soaking up the power and influence of classic rock and metal.

The band; Dan Clearly (vocals), Tim Brown (lead/rhythm guitars), William Wallace (bass) & Adam Brown (drums) recorded the album themselves with the help of Randy Black (who filled in on drums while Adam was away) and mixing genius Frederik Nordstrom (Bring Me The Horizon, In Flames, Opeth) giving them not only the time and space needed but the freedom to set up the release direct to fans worldwide.
“We’re so excited about having our music, our ideas, and our future in our own hands – ushering in a new era for the band of decisive action, dedication and forward thinking. Live life by one rule: No Limits!” – Tim Brown
