VALOR release new single “Wings of Steel”

Greek heavy metal band VALOR have officially released their new single “Warship, Our God” on all major digital streaming platforms today, April 17, 2026. The track is the second single from their forthcoming concept album “Ark of Time”, scheduled for release on May 15, 2026, following the critically acclaimed first single “Wings of Steel”.

“Warship, Our God” is one of the darkest chapters of the “Ark of Time” saga — an epic heavy metal track with a dramatic, almost ritualistic atmosphere that explores how power structures manipulate belief and history to maintain control. In the narrative of the concept album, the ruling order creates a false religion around the Ark, convincing the population that the starship is a divine entity and that obedience is the only path to survival. The song captures the moment when power turns into religion and the Ark becomes a symbol of absolute authority and enforced faith.

The track was inspired by dystopian science-fiction stories about propaganda, authoritarian regimes and the manipulation of truth. Musically, it combines epic heavy metal with a dramatic, almost ritualistic atmosphere, reflecting the moment when the Ark becomes a symbol of absolute authority and enforced faith within the story.

“‘Warship, Our God’ represents the moment when power turns into religion. Inside the Ark, the rulers transform the starship itself into a god and demand blind devotion from the people.”
