Power metal heroes GLORYHAMMER return to the intergalactic battlefield with “Die with a Sword in My Hand,” the second single from their upcoming fifth album, Space 1993: Wrath of Kor-Virliath, arriving October 16, 2026 via Napalm Records.

Packed with soaring power metal energy and larger-than-life storytelling, the track continues the adventures of Angus McFife V, whose supposed safe haven quickly descends into chaos as demons invade and another intergalactic battle begins.

Naturally, GLORYHAMMER have paired the song with an animated music video presented in the style of a television show, adding another chapter to the increasingly elaborate universe surrounding the Space Kingdom of Fife.

The Hootsman sums up the track rather efficiently:

“I don’t always die, but when I do, it’s with a sword in my hand.”

Space 1993: Wrath of Kor-Virliath serves as a direct sequel to 2015’s Space 1992: Rise of the Chaos Wizards, following Angus McFife V across spacetime toward the distant future of—naturally—1993.

Across eleven tracks, GLORYHAMMER promise to expand their familiar power metal formula with elements of thrash, synth rock, and sweeping orchestral arrangements. Produced by the band and mixed by Jacob Hansen, the record opens another gloriously absurd chapter in their cosmic saga.
