Steelheart Album News
Steelheart, the brainchild of powerhouse vocalist Miljenko Matijević, is set to re-release the acclaimed 2017 record Through Worlds Of Stardust on November 15, 2025. The album is fully remastered and featuring a newly reworked version of the hit single “You Got Me Twisted.” The first track from the album, “My Freedom,” arrives June 25, just in time to fire up rock fans for the July 4th holiday.
Originally released on Frontiers Records, Through Worlds Of Stardust earned critical praise for its seamless blend of classic rock, AOR, and modern grit. Back in the hands of Steelheart Records and lovingly restored, the album is primed for rediscovery.
And Decibel Geek called out its ballads as “four of the best power ballads written in the past ten years. WOW!!!”
Matijević, who also served as the voice of the fictional Steel Dragon in the film Rock Star and has fronted The Doors in their modern incarnation, has spent the last three decades building an international fanbase stretching from the U.S. to his native Croatia and throughout Asia, where his songs have topped charts.
But his journey hasn’t been without adversity. In 1992, during Steelheart’s first arena tour, a lighting rig collapsed on stage in Denver, nearly killing him. The shocking footage went viral, and his recovery became part of rock history. Defying the odds, he returned with a message of resilience, hope, and a renewed drive to create.
After commemorating his journey with a 30th Anniversary release, Miljenko now looks forward — with new music, high-profile collaborations, and the return of Stardust, fully realized.
Through Worlds Of Stardust (Remastered) drops November 15, 2025.
“My Freedom” releases June 25, 2025 on all streaming platforms.
