About the track, Guitarist Bob Balch says:
" 'Axe Dragger' was the first song we wrote. When ex-PENTAGRAM drummer Minnesota Pete Campbell reached out to me about collaborating on a metal record, those riffs came out of me moments later. The song pretty much wrote itself.

I thought Terry Glaze (ex-PANTERA) would sound great on it, so we sent it over to him. When we both heard the vocals and lyrics, we knew we had something special. I mean—he sings the words “heavy metal” in the first verse! Haha.

That song lit a fire under all of us and ended up spawning the entire record. Pete then mentioned bringing in Fredrik Isaksson from Dark Funeral on bass. Fredrik absolutely killed it on that track, and at that point the lineup was solidified.

The riffs on this song were inspired by the early ’80s metal records I grew up on—Judas Priest, Riot, Maiden, Dio, etc., etc. Hope you dig it!"
