German power metal space warriors, Victorius, reports back from the battlefield with the next single from their upcoming full-length, Dinosaur Warfare Pt. 2 - The Great Ninja War, out June 24. “Victorious Dinogods” cracks open this mystical world and gives a taste of what to expect from the album, featuring strong vocals, heavy guitar riffs and euphoric tunes that accompany their fight to protect mankind against the Sunbladers. Stay tuned and join the space warriors in their ongoing battle.
The band on “Victorious Dinogods”: "Dinos arise, stand up and fight!!! 'Victorious Dinogods' is the next battle hymn in this holy war of Dinosaurs and Ninjas!!! This single opens the mystical world of our new album Dinosaur Warfare Pt. 2. Raise your sword to uplifting melodies and a Jurassic hookline!”
Dinosaur Warfare Pt. 2 - The Great Ninja War sets off with a monumental introduction, cracking open this mystical world as it flows into “Victorious Dinogods”. The track initiates battle with relentless power metal as the mighty dinogods resurrect to protect mankind against the space ninja attack. Luckily, the dinogods don’t stand alone, as they are proudly joined in battle by the “Mighty Magic Mammoth”, awakened by a fiery comet. But wait, there are more brothers-in-arms (and songs) on their way - like “Jurassic Jetfighters”, “Triceps Ceratops” and “Tyrannosaurus Steel”. The three join forces to fight the ninjas and their fearsome dragon, as fabled on smashing track “Dinos and Dragons”, spiced with an intense guitar solo praising the tradition of speed metal with a remarkable virtuosity. A foreshadowing of what’s to come when the ninjas take command is described with “Katana Kingdom Rising”, setting off with stomping drums that lead to an anthemic chorus. Strong symphonic elements are witnessed on “God of Roar” as well as on the powerful track “Night of the Nuclear Ninja”, which tells the story of the space ninjas transforming into even deadlier, nuclear versions of themselves. This is when another grand figure joins the fold: the giant “Powerzord”, a mighty robot lord, who comes to the aid of the dinosaurs in battle with the aim of finally freeing mankind from the space ninja threat. Will the dinos and their brave supporters manage to prevent the nuclear ninja kingdom from rising? Find out on Dinosaur Warfare Pt. 2 - The Great Ninja War - a roaring good time for all.
