Published: April 18, 2018
On May 4th, symphonic black metal giants
DIMMU BORGIR will finally release their new studio album after eight years of silence. New record
»Eonian« combines symphonic epicness with the spirit of the Norwegian black metal scene of the Nineties and will be the tenth longplayer released by
DIMMU BORGIR. In this third trailer, vocalist
Shagrath and guitarist
Silenoz discuss working with Polish artist and architect
Zbigniew M. Bielak on the highly detailed cover artwork for
»Eonian« and what the album title represents to them. Watch the trailer, filmed at Blackcraft Cult Clothing, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9BvGtq4_8A

Being one of the successful extreme metal forges on the planet,
DIMMU BORGIR have been dominating the symphonic black metal genre for 25 years. The songwriting core of
DIMMU BORGIR furthermore consists of charismatic vocalist
Shagrath, as well as the string wizards
Silenoz and
Galder, but other familiar faces also emerge from the darkness: Drummer
Daray and keyboarder
Gerlioz are still part of the team, and
Gaute Storaas helped with the choral arrangements for the majestic voices of the
Schola Cantrum Choir. As the title
»Eonian« indicates, the band's 10th full-length release is dealing with the illusion of time and marks a tribute to both the band's own past as well as the Norwegian black metal history.
