In September 2025, Danish heavy metal force Meridian - DK returned with their self-titled fifth studio album, “Meridian”, released via From The Vaults.

A bold statement of intent and rebirth, “Meridian” strips everything back to the essentials: powerful riffs, melodic choruses and a no-frills devotion to classic ’80s heavy metal. With the arrival of new frontman Søren Adamsen (ex-Artillery), the band sharpen their sound and deliver their most direct and hard-hitting record to date.

Produced, mixed and mastered by guitarist Marco Angioni at Angioni Studios, the album was recorded with a live-first mindset, capturing the raw energy and tight interplay that define Meridian on stage.

This is not just another album - it’s a restart, a declaration, and a love letter to traditional heavy metal.
