WATAIN 's new video "We Remain" is a visionary account of the band's manifestations
 |
| "How red and full of truth are not the stories by the fires told? Absorbed and passed on by every dreamer Madly drunk from embers glow" |
The video, directed by Johan Bååth, who was also behind WATAIN's "Opus Diaboli" and "Outlaw" music video, showcases a selection of clips and images that honours the band's history and its various manifestations throughout the years, since the very early, primal stages of the band, through live and guests members who have become part of WATAIN during the band's growth, such as their brothers Selim Lemouchi and Set Teitan; up until its more recent embodiment, with H.Death and E.Forcas of Degial fame.
"I began writing "We Remain" in 2012, as a meditation on the concept of Mythopoeia; our mythical origins and how our understanding and approach to them is shaped and transformed throughout time", comments Erik Danielsson on the band's official statement presenting the single. "The lyric is built around the five elemental wings of the Pentagram, and the mysteries embedded in that ancient symbol. It is a song about forgotten things that ought to be remembered, the search for truths that were lost, of the ever burning flame that illuminates the darkness of times immemorial, the passing of aeons and and our ponderable place therein."

WATAIN announce new album "The Agony & Ecstasy of WATAIN" out on April 29th
Right after the release of their fierce new single "The Howling", WATAIN have announced details regarding their seventh album: it will carry the very promising and intriguing title "The Agony & Ecstasy of WATAIN", and it will be out on Nuclear Blast on April 29th, 2022,under license from His Master's Noise.
It will come with an amazingly rich in details cover artwork, created by Erik Danielsson himself and Oik Wasfuk, showing the pillars of the Temple of WATAIN framing scenes of demonic chaos, vicious flames and rotten putridity covering everything, like in a Black metal Inferno which awaits the listeners that enter to experience, indeed, "The Agony & Ecstasy of WATAIN".
Tracklist appears to be as follows:
1. Ecstasies in night infinite
2. The howling
3. Serimosa
4. Black cunt
5. Leper's grace
6. Not sun nor man nor god
7. Before the cataclysm
8. We remain
9. Funeral winter
10. Septentrion
The album has been written by Erik Danielsson, Håkan Jonsson and Pelle Forsberg and it's the first one to be recorded together with their fellow live members Alvaro Lillo, H. Death and E. Forcas (of Degial). We are especially intrigued by the fact that two very special guests on the album are none other than Gottfrid Åhman (which contributed additional lead guitar) and Farida Lemouchi (vocals).
"The Agony & Ecstasy of WATAIN" can already be pre-ordered on vinyl, CD, in a Deluxe Edition containing both + a sticker and a prayer shawl, and alongside new official merchandise on Nuclear Blast's webshop, and it can be pre-saved on all major platforms at this LINK.

WATAIN awakens the beast of Black metal with new single "The Howling"
Today the wolves of WATAIN strikes again with their new powerful, majestic and fiery black metal hymn titled "The Howling"!
The song is taken from WATAIN's upcoming seventh album, due out in Spring of 2022 on Nuclear Blast Records.
In a terrific blast of magnificent riffs, relentless vocals and pummeling drums, "The Howling" has WATAIN's unmistakable touch of pitch black epicness, which is able to evoke such feelings of awe, and at the same time the violence and the sharpness of a wolf's teeth, eager to feast on the listeners' flesh.
While waiting for WATAIN's new album to be out, "The Howling" surely provides some fierce black metal excellence to call upon the most primordial and untamed part of music and of existence.
WATAIN have also released in conjunction a new video for their single, once again masterfully directed by Claudio Marino / Artax Film, a fierce and uncompromising reminder that the cunning voice of the Darkness is always calling and always hungry. And it surely resounds in WATAIN's music!
