LION'S SHARE set release date for comeback album, reveal cover and tracklisting

Lion's Share are back—stronger than ever! With six acclaimed albums and a string of successful digital singles, the Swedish heavy metal powerhouse is set to unleash their long-awaited comeback album.

"For us, Inferno is more than just a new album—it’s a statement," says guitarist Lars Chriss. "We’ve spent years writing, refining, and pushing ourselves harder than ever. The goal was simple—make the strongest, heaviest, and most focused Lion's Share record of our career. I honestly feel we’ve achieved that. This is the album where everything fell into place."

Vocalist Nils Patrik Johansson adds: "Taking 17 years between albums wasn’t the plan, but it allowed us to come back with fire in our veins. We’ve never sounded tighter, and we can’t wait to bring these songs to the stage. This album has the attitude, the hooks, the power…everything that made us fall in love with heavy metal in the first place. We’re incredibly proud of Inferno."

Formed in Sundsvall, Sweden in 1987 by guitarist Lars Chriss and keyboardist Kay Backlund, Lion's Share quickly carved out a unique sound through relentless rehearsals and high-voltage live shows. Their 1995 self-titled debut opened the door to extensive touring, including full-scale tours and extended runs alongside genuine metal titans such as Motörhead, Saxon, Dio, Manowar, U.D.O., and Dee Snider.

Along the way, Lion's Share has collaborated with members of some of the most legendary bands in the world, including KISS, Megadeth, King Diamond, Candlemass, Symphony X, Aand Yngwie Malmsteen. Albums like Emotional Coma and Dark Hours have earned critical praise for their razor-sharp riffing, massive hooks, and a perfect balance of heaviness and melody.

Since 2017, Lion's Share have operated as a dynamic duo, with Lars Chriss on guitar and Nils Patrik Johansson on vocals, calling on trusted friends for live and studio collaborations.
