Details about the band's upcoming sixth full-length have also been disclosed today: titled "Trident Wolf Eclipse", to be released on January 5th, 2018 through Watain's label His Master's Noise and Century Media, it "contains eight songs and is our shortest and, I suppose you could say, most to-the-point record so far. Out of all the depths explored through our past work, I believe this holds some of our strongest and most relevant material to date.", explains Erik Danielsson on the interview conducted by Bardo Methodology , also published earlier today.
He also confirms that while the recording of the album has been done by the original band line up, drummer Håkan will not take part in the touring aspect of the band and therefore in the live context, drums will be handled by drummer Emil of Degial (who had already been replacing Watain's former drummer in the past).
"Trident Wolf Eclipse", along with its new merchandise, can be pre-ordered on Watain's official webshop Wolfwear in different editions and formats.
