Glory for Salvation is the thirteenth studio album by Italian symphonic power metal band Rhapsody of Fire. It was released on 26 November 2021 via AFM Records.[2][3]

The album is the second chapter of The Nephilim's Empire Saga.[4][5] It is the first studio album to feature Paolo Marchesich on drums.[6]

Background

On April 6, 2020, Vocalist Giacomo Voli in an exclusive interview, had revealed that the band were working on the album. Voli said:

"This year we will record the new album and probably start already in the summer. At the end of the tour I will start working on the lyrics with Roby De Micheli because some songs are already in the pre-production phase so they can be released in the spring of next year. As for the development of the saga, we will continue to narrate the events of this strange protagonist who was able to get out of hell thanks to the Nephilim. There are many possible ways and we will see what will happen."[7]

The band later announced that the recording of the album had been completed on 24 September 2020, and were confirmed to be mixing the album with Sebastian "Seeb" Levermann in April 2021.[8][9] The first single off of the album, "I'll Be Your Hero" was released on 4 June 2021 as an EP.[10] The album's details and release date were later announced on 8 July 2021, along with the release of the second single and title song "Glory for Salvation".[11][12] The third single, "Magic Signs" was released on 2 September 2021.[13][14] The fourth single, "Terial the Hawk", was released on 15 October 2021.[15] The fifth single, "Chains of Destiny" was released on 7 November 2021, along with a music video.[16][17] The sixth single, "Un'ode per l'eroe" was released on 17 December 2021, along with a music video.[18]
