UK black metallers Winterfylleth have revealed that they will be releasing their eighth studio record, The Imperious Horizon, on September 13th through Candlelight Records. The effort was recorded and produced by Chris Fielding (Primordial, Napalm Death, Electric Wizard) at Foel Studios. Mastering was handled by Mark Mynett (My Dying Bride, Rotting Christ) at his Mynetaur Productions. Speaking of the new album, guitarist/vocalist C. Naughton offered:
“In some ways, the album is a reflection on the mania of the years since the last album, how the world has changed for the worse, and moreover how we all feel like we are living in a more divided and upheaved world ever since! The title speaks to a looming sense of some dominant power or agenda that is coming, just over the horizon. It’s on its way, and we don’t know quite how it will manifest, but we know that it is creeping ever forward, and it is inevitable.”
The album announced also ushered in the release of a new single, “Dishonour Enthroned”. The music video for the song was filmed by Killian Monson and can be found below.
Pre-orders of The Imperious Horizon are now live and can be picked up here and via Bandcamp.
