Viribus Unitis is the fourth studio album by the Austrian power metal band Dragony. It was released on 15 January 2021 via Napalm Records.[1]
After another crowdfunding campaign in support of their fourth album, it was announced on 29 June 2020, that Dragony had signed a new worldwide record deal with Austrian label Napalm Records.[2]
In March 2022, Dragony announced the departure of founding member Andreas Poppernitsch due to increasing commitments outside the band. Viribus Unitis is thus the last studio album to feature Poppernitsch on guitar.[3]
