Nach ihrem Mid-Tempo Rocker `Bite My Tongue´ präsentieren TUNGSTEN heute den schnellen Track `The North Will Rise´. Dabei ist SONATA ARCTICA Frontmann Toky Kakko als Gastsänger mit an Bord.
Leadsänger Mike Andersson erklärt:
„It’s such an honour to have Tony onboard on this song. He did a tremendous job. I think our voices fit perfectly together which makes ‚The North Will Rise‘ extra special. Lyrically it’s a kind of a hymn to our part of the world in the north. We hope the metal community and the fans of Sonata Arctica and of course Tungsten will like this song and crank it up LOUD!“
Tony Kakko fügt hinzu:
„Catchy like the cold in January on a viking ship crossing a nordic, half frozen sea! Truly a song to unite the people and friends of the North! Very proud and happy to join my friends in Tungsten singing together with Mike on this amazing new track. The melodies are just contagious…Consider yourself warned!“

Lyrics:
Denmark, Norway, Iceland, land
Finland, Sweden, hand in hand
Strong we stand against the fall
Heeding the northern call
Don’t bend for the threat
In this cold land we’ve met
Hearts blazing with pride’s flame
Never forget our name
The north will be strong again
Against the menace we defend
Feeling the wind of fire
We rise higher and higher
From fjords to the Arctic seas
United like ancient trees
Roots deep in frozen ground
Together we make a sound
In the night sky we shine
Each star a northern sign
Aurora lights our way
Through the coldest of days
The north will be strong again
Against the menace we defend
Feeling the wind of fire
We rise higher and higher
The north will be strong again
Against the menace we defend
Feeling the wind of fire
We rise higher and higher
The north will be strong again
Against the menace we defend
Feeling the wind of fire
We rise higher and higher
