Danish metallers DEFECTO proudly unleash their new single, “Heart On Fire (Feat. Stig Rossen),” taken from their latest studio album, ‘Echoes Of Isolation,’ out now via Frontiers Music Srl. The new track features Danish actor and singer Stig Rossen, and arrives alongside an official video, available below.
Nicklas Sonne comments:
“‘Heart On Fire’ hits hard with a melodic, high-energy edge – a song about fighting through the numbness, turning pressure into power, and keeping the fire alive even when it’s burning low.”

DEFECTO is a Copenhagen-based metal band formed in 2011 by guitarist/vocalist Nicklas Sonne, guitarist Frederik Møller, and bassist Thomas Bartholin.
Known for their combination of technical precision, melodic strength, and emotional intensity, the band has become one of the most respected names in the modern Danish metal scene.
With three studio albums, two EPs, and several acclaimed festival appearances (Copenhell, RockFest Finland) and support slots with Metallica and Rammstein, DEFECTO has consistently pushed the envelope of progressive and cinematic metal.
Now, Frontiers Records proudly presents ‘Echoes Of Isolation,’ the band’s most personal, intense, and introspective record yet – a concept album exploring the haunting landscape of mental illness and psychological struggles.
Nicklas Sonne states:
“Each song inhabits a different psychological struggle – insomnia, schizophrenia, OCD, PTSD, paranoia, dissociation, trauma – giving voice to the war within. This isn’t just a metal album. It’s a mirror held to the mind.
“For us, it’s about turning pain into power, and creating something that can connect deeply with anyone who has ever felt broken, isolated, or misunderstood,” he added.
Fans of Metallica, Symphony X, or Evergrey will be captivated by the album’s cinematic power and progressive depth, driven by Sonne’s compelling vocals and razor-sharp songwriting.
