Interview: Andy Barton (Vocals) of Grimgotts (Video/Audio)

London symphonic power metal band Grimgotts have chronicled epic battles between men and dragons on the high seas across several well-received albums already. Lions of the Sea (2017), Dragons of the Ages (2019), Tales, Sagas & Legends (2021), and now, the band’s fourth album, the concept record ‘The Time of the Wolfrider’, out on September 27th, 2024, via Elevate Records.

This album chronicles an epic hero’s journey, battling witches and werewolves in the mythical land of Andria.

The step-up in quality is stunning here, and every development within this band has only enhanced their abilities more. This is the record that puts them on power metal map once and for all.
