''Interludium'' is the ninth studio album by German power metal band Powerwolf. The album was released on 7 April 2023 through Napalm Records and was produced by Joost van den Broek. Critical reception David E. Gehlke from Blabbermouth.net gave the album 7 out of 10 and said: "''Interludium'' is a quality, worthy addition to Powerwolf's expanding discography, but compilation or not, it shows that power metal bands don't take risks anymore. And given Powerwolf's continued rise through the international metal ranks, they'd be fools to try something different anyway." ''Metal Injection'' rated the album 7.5 out of 10 and stated, "Filled with the usual blend of infectious hooks and big werewolf energy that epitomise Powerwolf, it's almost impossible to listen along to ''Interludium'' without a big smile on your face.
