Rage

The German band Rage was founded in 1984 under the name Avenger. Since then, bassist and singer Peter "Peavy" Wagner has been the head of the band. The representatives of power metal provide their audience with a new album almost every year, from Reign of Fear (1986) and Perfect Man (1988) to Speak of the Dead (2006), Strings to a Web (2010) and The Devil Strikes Again (2016). In their long career, Rage have released more than 20 albums full of speed and progressive metal, sometimes peppered with elements of speed and death metal. After Seasons of the Black (2017) and Wings of Rage (2020), Resurrection Day made it into the top 20 in Germany for the first time in 2022 at number 14. The double album Afterlifelines is released in March 2024 to mark the band's 40th anniversary. A new studio album, A New World Rising, follows at the end of September 2025.
