French Progressive/Heavy Metal outfit Frozen Arch returns with a nostalgic and high-energy release titled “Back In ‘85”, out digitally on June 11, 2025. Entirely self-released, the single blends the band’s signature Classic Heavy Metal sound with touches of Progressive Metal and Hard Rock, creating an anthemic tribute to a golden era of riff-driven music.
Accompanying the release is the official lyric video, available now on YouTube:
Built on soaring vocals, driving rhythms, and a tight yet melodic arrangement, “Back In ‘85” features Loïc Malassagne on vocals, guitars, bass, and keyboards, with Jim D on drums and a guest appearance by Jan D, who contributes a blazing guitar solo.
Fans of Queensrÿche, Iron Maiden, and Iced Earth will appreciate Frozen Arch’s ability to channel vintage influences while delivering a fresh, modern edge.
