Watain announce their fifth record to be The Wild Hunt and set the release date to be August 19 in Europe and August 20 in the USA. Hooray black metal!
In a statement by the band that just seems like they're trying infinitely too hard-
After 120 nights of iron will and ardent magic, the fifth full length album of Watainis now complete. With broken bones and burning hearts we have ploughed our way through deepest winter into a new wilderness, to which we will open the gates at summer's end. 'The Wild Hunt' will be released on August 19th in Europe and August 20th in USA. Beware the rising star of dawn…
Yeah! Prepare for magic and hunting and stuff! Or just a sweet black metal record, which is what they were saying in black metal speak. I don't see how this record can be bad by any stretch given the band's usual penchant for penning some pretty decent metal, but I'm certainly not exploding into corpse-laden kittens about it either. Keep an eye out for singles and all that jazz! I'm sure we'll be posting one soon enough for you to go burn down some churches and what-have-you.
