inquisition 2016

Black metal duo Inquisition released their latest album Obscure Verses of the Multiverse back in 2013 and it was highly praised by everyone, but it’s been three years since that release, meaning we are going to get a new one soon.

Inquisition just announced the release of their upcoming new album titled Bloodshed Across the Empyrean Altar Beyond the Celestial Zenith, set to be unleashed on August 26th via Season of Mist. In the same fashion of every new album announcement, we get to hear a taste of the record with the new track “Wings of Anu” and it’s a great one. Frontman Dagon explained the track by saying:

“Anu is the god of all gods, the cosmos, the all. His seeds were dropped to the soil of earth and life was spawned. His wings represent those who came here and seeded the earth. Still today those wings continue to return and are at times seen in the skies in various forms in the most unnatural forms transcending through interstellar portals to earth.”
