Official Announcement | Published: Feb 20, 2026 10:57 AM EST

(Napalm Records) Powerwolf's brand-new live album, Wildlive (Live At Olympiahalle), tops the Official German Album Charts, adding yet another #1-charting record to the most successful current heavy metal band's outstanding discography!

It's the fifth #1 entry after Preachers Of The Night (2013), The Sacrament Of Sin (2018), The Monumental Mass - A Cinematic Metal Event (2022) and Wake Up The Wicked (2024). POWERWOLF cement their status as one of the most successful bands around right now!

Alongside their praised, massively successful releases, Powerwolf have earned their standing at the very top of the current metal scene through playing headline and premium slots at essential rock and metal festivals such as Wacken, Hellfest and Graspop, as well as with the band's huge sold-out arena shows. The Wolfpack is currently on a major European headlining tour through Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Germany, and England, celebrating their heavy metal mass with tens of thousands of enthusiastic fans.

Powerwolf guitarist Matthew Greywolf states: "Having a No. 1 chart-entry with a live-album is pure madness - we didn't expect that at all and it's a terrific statement that live-music matters!!! Thank you all so much!"

Napalm Records Founder and Managing Director Markus Riedler adds: "Reaching number one in the German charts with a live album is a huge sign of trust in the band's work from their loyal fans - and at the same time the result of great teamwork between the band, management, distributor, and label."
