Legendary U.S. heavy metal act NINTH CIRCLE has officially inked a deal with Fighter Records to unleash their highly anticipated fifth studio album, “Anthem of the Immortal.” Set for release on June 3rd, 2025, the album will be available in both CD and digital formats.

Formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1996, NINTH CIRCLE has been a dominant force in melodic heavy metal for nearly three decades. With four acclaimed albums under their belt—”Ninth Circle” (2000), “The Power of One” (2008), “Legions of the Brave” (2014), and “Echo Black” (2020)—the band has solidified its status as a powerhouse in the genre. Their latest offering, “Anthem of the Immortal,” was written throughout 2024 and marks their first release under Fighter Records, ensuring global reach and exposure.

Serving as the long-awaited successor to the multi-award-winning “Echo Black,” the new album showcases an evolution in NINTH CIRCLE’s sound. With a heavier, more aggressive edge while maintaining their signature melodic and harmony-driven style, “Anthem of the Immortal” delivers a dynamic, high-energy listening experience. Notably, this album is the first to feature the band’s current touring lineup: lead guitarist and vocalist Dennis Brown, bassist Frank Forray, and drummer Richie “Captain Black” Brooks. Longtime collaborator and producer Jeff Prentice (PREDATOR, OUTLAND, THE SEEDS) once again helms production duties, ensuring a polished and powerful sonic assault.

“Anthem of the Immortal” is the ultimate next step for NINTH CIRCLE—an electrifying collection of melodic metal anthems that will satisfy longtime fans and new listeners alike.
