U.S./Irish hard rockers BLACK STAR RIDERS are set to release their hotly-anticipated third album Heavy Fire on the 3rd of February via Nuclear Blast Entertainment. Today, the band premiere the new lyric video for “Heavy Fire”, the albumπs thundering opening track.

Lead vocalist/guitarist Ricky Warwick explains about the track, “Only fools would believe that rock n roll can rejuvenate a world in the throes of a collapsing civilisation that’s coming under heavy fire from all asunder. But what if the would-be fools are right?”
