Executioner Steel |Rage Of The Thunderstorm |Stormspell Records


Release Date: 28/11/2025
Format: CD
Genre: Heavy Metal
Country: Bangladesh

Executioner Steel comes out of Bangladesh swinging banners soaked in sweat, steel and old school devotion. This is a young horde with clear priorities, heavy metal first, fists up, eyes locked on the classics. Raised on epic tales and ringing steel, they step onto the field with their debut full length, carrying influences worn proudly on their sleeves and no shame about it.

 “Rage Of The Thunderstorm” is built on familiar ground, galloping riffs, heroic melodies, chest beating choruses and a strong sense of battle ready drama. The spirit of Manowar, Virgin Steele, Iron Maiden and Manilla Road hangs thick in the air, not as mimicry, but as a guiding flame. The songwriting stays focused on anthemic heavy metal, favoring memorability over excess. The album sounds hungry, rough around the edges in places, but that raw hunger works in its favor.


There is a clear love for epic storytelling and traditional metal muscle. Tracks like “Rage Of The Thunderstorm”, “Defenders Of Metal” and “Heralds Of The Sword” swing hard on classic hooks and proud refrains, built to be shouted along with a raised fist. Longer cuts such as “Wrath Of Desire” and “Valiant Queen” stretch out into more dramatic territory, adding atmosphere through pacing and melody rather than flash. Nothing here is disposable, even when some ideas repeat familiar paths.

The production keeps things honest and grounded, allowing the songs to do the talking. Vocals aim high and dramatic, sometimes brushing the edge, but they sell the warrior spirit well. Guitars stay rooted in traditional heavy metal tones, favoring melody and rhythm over excess speed. The album holds together as a unified strike, even if a few moments blur into each other during the back half.

“Rage Of The Thunderstorm” earns its place as a solid debut from a scene not often in the global spotlight. It delivers exactly what true metal fans look for when they want steel, fire and battle hymns, without pretending to be something else. Not perfect, not legendary, but honest, passionate and loud enough to matter.

Score: 7.5
