Tungsten is a Swedish power metal band formed by ex-HammerFall drummer Anders Johansson and his two sons.

History

Anders founded the band in 2016, together with his son Nick and Karl Johansson.[1] The idea for creating a band together arose, after Anders listened to metal music that his sons created, which he enjoyed, eventually leading into the bands formation.[2][3] Tungsten was later joined by swedish vocalist Mike Andersson, following which the recording of their first album started.[4]

Their debut album, We Will Rise, was released on 20th September 2019, containing elements of power and folk metal.[5][3] Rock Hard Germany described the album as "carrying Nordic Folk Metal and predominant Power Metal elements, as well as influences like Rammstein or Modern Metal."[3] The recording of the album and also it's producing and mixing, done by Nick Johansson, took place in the summer of 2018.[2] In spring of 2019, a contract with record label Arising Empire was signed, under which the album was later published.[2] The album contains the songs "We Will Rise" and "The Fairies Dance", which were both published as singles before the album's release.[6][1]

In summer 2020, Tungsten was supposed to partake in Sabaton Open Air as a performer.[7] However, due to Covid-19 related restrictions, the festival was postponed[8] – at first to August 2021, and later to August 2022.[9]

In 2020, the band released two singles, King of Shadows[10] and Life of the Ocean.[11][12] Later that year, on November the 27th, their second studio album called Tundra was published.[13][14] The albums recording started in late 2019, with final vocals being completed by January 2020.[4] The lyrics of the album tell the story of Volfram, the Guardian of Time, who can be seen of the albums cover, and his adventure through an icy tundra. A guest appearance on Tundra was made by Jens Johansson, Andersen's brother, who is knows as the keyboardist of bands, such as Rainbow and Stratovarius. He can be heard performing a keyboard solo on the albums closing track, "Here Comes the Fall".[4]

On July 7, 2021, the bands official Instagram account confirmed that a third album was in production.[15]
