Darkthrone are gearing up for their new album, Eternal Hails, which is scheduled to arrive on June 25th via Peaceville Records. Today (3rd), these black metal titans have unveiled the first and only single to be released ahead of the album’s arrival with “Hate Cloak.” 

Fenriz comments on the 9min 17 seconds track:

“Hate Cloak is certainly the slowest song on the album, there are plenty of “fast” parts on Ted’s songs, middle tempos and slow as well. The whole point of us having long songs is variation in tempos/pace, hence the epicness”
