English black metallers Winterfylleth have their fourth full-length ready. The Divination Of Antiquity will be released on 6 October 2014 in the UK and the following day in the rest of the world by Candlelight Records.
Formed in 2007, Winterfylleth have rapidly become one of the UK’s most prominent black metal forces. Having honed their craft throughout the years, The Divination Of Antiquity promises a fresh look on the band’s identity; “comprising 9 new tracks of passionate, anthemic and epic black metal the band build on their established foundations and come out fighting with their strongest album to date” as the press release describes it.
Singer Chris Naughton comments: “The new album represents a real step forward for the band. I really think that we poured over the material much more meticulously in the making of this album and i think that shows through in the finished article. The new songs really focus on the more melodic, passionate and expansive end of our spectrum this time around ,and we have also taken the opportunity to shine light into a few dark corners of our songwriting including some slower, doomier elements this time as well. We recorded the new album with Chris Fielding again, but this time at his newly established Skyhammer Studios and I think that’s really given it a boost. His vision and a fresh recording environment has helped us to hone the essence of what a Winterfylleth record can be on ‘Divination’. We hope you all agree! See you on the road later in the year”.
Winterfylleth will be headlining the first date of Candlefest at the London Underworld, Saturday 4 October 2014.
