WATAIN

Watain crawled out of Satan’s cunt in 1998, and has since then ascended and grown into one of the world’s most well-known and notorious Black Metal bands. Their legacy is often referred to with fear, love, confusion or awe, but seldom with indifference.

Their infamous live shows have become a worldwide phenomenon, inimitable ceremonies of wild Black Metal fanatism where the sacred and solemn collides with raw, unadulterated force.

With their greatly anticipated seventh studio album, Watain continues to arouse and electrify their audience with an unmistakable, adventurous brand of Black Metal Magic, processed and distilled over the course of a 25-year long history.

Recorded live by long-time collaborator Tore Stjerna in his infamous Necromorbus studio, now re-located to an old church on the Swedish countryside,’The Agony & Ecstasy of Watain’takes the listener one huge step closer to the innermost heart of a band that, despite always being surrounded by rumours and controversy has always strived for a most sincere and genuine form of expression.

With 10 songs written by the founding trinity of Watain (E.Danielsson, H. Jonsson and P. Forsberg), it is also the first Watainalbum to be recorded live with a full line up completed by A. Lillo, H. Eriksson and E. Forcas.

The material is further enriched by noble contributions from Farida Lemouchi (ex The Devil’s Blood, now in Molasses) and Gottfrid Åhman (ex In Solitude, now in PÅGÅ). The lyrics, always a central aspect of every Watain album, range from manic proselytism to profound contemplation on the relativity between life and death, sacred and profane, holy and unholy, agony and ecstasy, eagerly excavating the winding depth of mind and spirit with a new sense of clarity and determination.

Characterized by a morbid sense of beauty mingled with raw primal force, Watain is the wolf that keeps hunting, fearless and free, in the dark night of man.
