Pressure have pushed what definable metal is with their unique tone and style. Not just looking at it as subgenres but one whole, cohesive mass-they have changed the game. Their “melodic metal” is a fluidic transpose between many categories that purists whine and bicker about. This is their latest single, Demon Warrior. 

I have always loved the fantasy world of metal. It is these themes that have drawn me to the songs in the first place. Whether it be Iron Maiden or the specific faction of Amon Amarth, there is a lot to obsess over. With this single, they wade into power metal while retaining the melodies and symphonies. It is one of their most varied, melody wise. The anthem like drum beat for the verse will make you want to pump your fist towards the sky. The chorus is an inspiring, hair-raising part which might make your eyes tear up. Inspiring, yet versatile-the vocals from Olli Violet are what bring a choir like feel to the song. You can see how Pressure bring the darkness of black metal with just the lyrics. The harmonic solo after the breakdown threads through beautifully with the lyrics and vocals. One of their best. 

I would love this to be in the God of War (2017) movie. Though there are themes that are only parallels, this movie missed out on a crushing soundtrack. Pressure will be able to fill that void with the resonating melodies they write. Listen to their singles like All the Things and Demonic Oath as well, to have the most metal of nights.
