Today, legendary Russian black metallers Old Wainds reveal the new track “Of Night and Ice.” The track is the first to be revealed from the band’s long-awaited sixth album, Stormheart, set for international release on November 27th via Darkness Shall Rise Productions. Hear Old Wainds‘ “Of Night and Ice” in its entirety HERE at Darkness Shall Rise‘s official YouTube channel.
Active since 1995 and with five previous full-lengths under their belts, Russia’s Old Wainds are back on the frozen battlefield armed with seven new lethal missiles. Picking up where they left off with their previous album, the predominantly fast-paced Stormheart reveals itself as ice-cold and relentlessly attacking yet melancholic and introspective at the same time. Driven by stunning guitar work, completely devoid of unnecessary gimmicks and vocals slightly distorted and rife with murderous contempt, Old Wainds have delivered one of the best black metal albums of the last couple of years. Stormheart was mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door Mastering.
