Johannes Clemens from German metal band Warfield discussed the band’s recent success in an interview with Loud TV.
‘I think the first one we published with Napalm Records was really hard to accept,’ Clemens said. ‘50,000 views — it’s like, really a lot of noise.’
‘It’s something you have to accept somehow,’ he continued. ‘It’s good, of course, but it’s also… the release day was very stressful and I had to detach a little bit.’
‘After all, like one week later, that’s all fine and it’s really cool,’ Clemens added. ‘The results are great, and I think the audience loves it — and that’s the most important thing for us.’
Warfield’s recent partnership with Napalm Records has led to a surge in popularity. This milestone marks a significant turning point in their career trajectory.
Napalm Records released the band’s latest album ‘With The Old Breed’ on April 4, 2025. The release showcases their evolution in the thrash metal scene.
The label demonstrated strong confidence in Warfield’s potential through diverse release formats. Napalm Records offered Black LP, Red White Black Splatter LP, and Digipak CD versions. They also created special merchandise bundles featuring T-shirts and collector items.
Outburn Magazine highlighted Warfield’s musical roots in classic thrash metal. The band draws inspiration from legendary acts like Kreator, Sodom, and Destruction. They also incorporate modern influences from bands such as Power Trip.
The band has strengthened their position in the thrash metal scene through notable live performances. They have shared stages with acclaimed acts like Evil Invaders, Tankard, and Exodus. These appearances have established them as prominent newcomers in the genre.
