Content Introduction Powerwolf, arguably the most popular German metal band today, has released a live album recorded from a live stream! Featuring numerous actors and dancers, their story-driven stage production, brilliantly recreating their occult worldview, is simply breathtaking! Powerwolf is arguably the most popular German metal band today. Their striking white-painted look, their thoroughly occult image encompassing werewolf legends and vampires, and the contrast with their orthodox power metal sound create a tremendous impact. Formed in 2004, they made their album debut the following year with "Return in Bloodred" on the prestigious Metal Blade label. After releasing "Lupus Dei" (2007), "Bible of the Beast" (2009), and "Blood of the Saints" (2011), they moved to Austria's major label, Napalm Records. Powerwolf's fifth album, "Preachers of the Night," released in 2013, became a massive hit, reaching No. 1 on the charts in their native Germany. Powerwolf became a frontrunner in the European metal scene. Their latest studio album, "Call of the Wild" (2021), featuring a heavy orchestra and choir, also garnered immense support from power metal fans. Now, Powerwolf is releasing a live album titled "The Monumental Mass: A Cinematic Metal Event." This album is a recording of their live stream performance on December 17, 2021. Naturally, this event was more than just a simple performance of songs. The stage set was extravagant, but the content was also incredibly rich. The stage, which they had meticulously prepared for months, was a theatrical production featuring numerous actors and dancers. The script, which perfectly matches their occult worldview, is simply breathtaking. It truly lives up to its name as a "cinematic metal event." It's of such high quality that it could easily be considered a feature film. The organ, with flames shooting out of pipes with every key pressed, is incredibly cool!
