Hunter vocalist Steve Strater releases his first ever solo single „Around“ on Metalapolis Records next friday, 13th June 2025.

As the charismatic frontman of the band Hunter (Rock'n'Roll VIP), Steve Strater is a wellestablished name in the rock scene. Now, he's expanding his creative horizon with the release of his first solo single „AROUND“, set to drop on June 13, 2025 - a hard-hitting rock track that captures the spirit of the times. 

With driving guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and Strater's distinctive voice, the song delivers an emotional and sonic punch. The opening line – „The world I used to know is buried in the past“ - reflects a world in flux, teetering between collapse and transformation. 

„We are now on a different ground“ - the lyrics speak of change, and with it, a sense of hope. „The world has turned around“ - the track delivers a powerful message: change is happening now, and we are part of shaping the new. 

A special highlight: the fiery guitar solo is performed by Steven Brandy, guitarist for Hunter, bringing additional depth and intensity to the song. 

„AROUND“ is more than just a solo debut - it's a statement. Raw, reflective, and right on time. 

The single will be available on all major streaming platforms on June 13, 2025.

„Around“ – lyrics  1  The world I used to know Is buried in the past Like ashes in the ground There’s nothing built to last Watch it fall, watch it burn No way back and no return Through the dust a light still shines A new horizon yours and mine  Refrain Round around around The world has turned around Round around around All the lost is found Round around around We are now on a different ground Round around around The sound from the underground   2 he footsteps in the dust Lead where no one’s been Fear is just a ghost It’s time to start again No more shadows, no more chains Feel the blood rush through our veins On the edge we spread our wings Jump into what tomorrow brings   3   Standing at the edge Of everything we burned Smoke is in my lungs But still the tide has turned One last breath, one final step No more fear and no regrets Through the fire, through the pain Something new will rise again
