Black Door announce new album ‘In the Shadows of a Funerary Gleam’
BLACK DOOR have announced a brand new album!
Titled In The Shadows Of A Funerary Gleam, the upcoming release from the Dutch black metal project is set for release on August 28th via Wolves Of Hades. The album marks the band’s sophomore full-length, following 2022’s And the Spirit of Old Whispered Worlds of Amduat, and continues their evolution into darker, more atmospheric territory, steeped in nocturnal mysticism and sepulchral grandeur.
Alongside the announcement, the band have released the album’s title track, In The Shadows Of A Funerary Gleam, as the first preview of the record.
Speaking about the new single, mastermind and multi-instrumentalist Vestibulum shares, “I am honored to present to you the name bearer of BLACK DOOR‘s sophomore record In the Shadows of a Funerary Gleam. Harnessing the manifold nature of fire, this composition highlights the dying flame of old legacies, casting its shadow on this world as well as illuminating its last disciples.
The fire’s embers signify a potency, a resurgence not embodied by necromancy, by raising a faltered legacy as living undead, yet rather as spark for a new tomorrow, forged by promethean fires rising stalwart towards a reinvigorated future.
In humble gratitude for your time, I remain. ‘What is termed sin is an essential element of progress. Without it the world would stagnate, or grow old, or become colourless.’”
