Steel is the first full-length album recorded by the heavy metal band Battle Beast.[2] It was released on January 27, 2012 [1] and reached No. 7 on the Finnish Album Chart.[3] It is also the first album and only album to feature Nitte Valo on lead vocals.

Influences[]

Steel borrows concepts and names from the manga Berserk, for example the lyrics of "Band of the Hawk": 'We are a mercenary band, led by Griffith, the white hawk.' "Iron Hand" similarly refers to protagonist Guts's iron arm, referring to him as the 'Black Swordsman'.
