Wings of Steel

**Wings of Steel** is a Canadian heavy metal band hailing from Vancouver, known for their high-octane riffs and epic, fist-pumping anthems. Formed in 2017 by guitarist Andrew Schnitzer and vocalist Giles La Roche, the group channels classic ’80s metal vibes with nods to legends like Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, while carving out their own modern edge. They burst onto the scene with their self-titled debut album *Wings of Steel* (2018), earning a cult following for their soaring vocals, blistering solos, and lyrics steeped in fantasy and resilience.

Recent releases like *We Rise* (2022) and *Gates of Twilight* (2023) showcase their knack for storytelling and airtight musicianship, while live albums such as *Live in France* prove they’re just as fierce onstage as in the studio. With tours across North America and Europe under their belts, Wings of Steel has built a reputation as a band that delivers shredding energy and unapologetic metal spirit. Whether you’re headbanging to *Burning Sands* or belting along to *Cry of the Damned*, these guys keep the flame of traditional heavy metal burning bright.
