FROZEN CROWN
Title:The Legend of the Six Kings
Label:Napalm Records
Release: 2nd October 2026
Their sixth album is a full‑scale siege, a Power Metal war cry sharpened to a lethal point by a band who finally sound like they’ve stopped asking permission and started claiming territory.
Fronted by Giada “Jade” Etro now fully embracing her villain era, trading the bright sparkle for a sinister, commanding presence. She doesn’t sing; she summons. Federico Mondelli lead guitar sorcerer, growler, clean vocalist, and general chaos engine.Alessia Lanzone & Aleksandra Stamenkovic twin‑blade guitar assassins, weaving harmonies like they’re stitching constellations together. Francesco Zof makes his bass rumble that feels like tectonic plates arguing. Niso Tomasini drums like siege cannons, firing nonstop.
"Lightning in the Sky" opens the album and on the first listen ya instantly raising your horns and banging you head as these Italian maestros kick the doors in mid‑battle, with blades flashing, drums galloping, Jade sounding like she’s leading an army of frost‑bitten zealots. It’s a declaration: we’re not here to entertain we’re here to conquer.
A choir‑powered, "Who Wants to Burn in Heaven is groove‑heavy anthem that basically says:
“Heaven is boring meet us in Hell, we’ve got better riffs.”
Federico’s growls hit like a demon laughing at your life choices.
A steadfast anthem that rocks up next with "Reborn" it feels like the band collectively decided to punch doubt in the throat. It’s uplifting, but in a “get up, sharpen your sword, stop whining” kind of way. "The One" Their Tolkien‑inspired darkness shines here sweeping, mysterious, and crowned with a majestic three‑guitar solo that feels like a dragon taking flight. Jade sounds like she’s singing from inside a storm.
"Iris" (Goo Goo Dolls cover)is this where Frozen Crown commit a glorious crime? They take a 90s emotional ballad and turn it into a power‑metal missile. Waltz‑time tenderness? Gone!! High‑speed drums, pathos‑drenched vocals, and heroic bombast? Absolutely!
"Winter Hearts" Growls, heavy riffs, and a chorus built for arenas. It’s a callback to "The Fallen King", but with sharper teeth and colder blood.
"River of Time" " Through the Fire " and "To the Stars" The storytelling deepens melancholic, assertive, and full of singalong fire. These tracks feel like chapters in a saga, each one pushing the legend forward.
The final blow . "The Legends of The Six Kings"
Growled verses bordering on melodic death metal, Jade and Federico duetting like two deities arguing over who gets to smite humanity first.
It’s grand, vicious, and absolutely throne‑worthy. This album is heavy power metal sharpened into a mythic weapon.
It’s darker, more narrative, more confident a band finally wearing the crown they forged years ago.
Frozen Crown have always had the fire.
Here, they finally show the flame‑breathing monster behind it.
"This isn’t a return it’s a coronation. Six kings. One crown. Frozen Crown rule Hell and Heaven alike".
