Black metal heavyweights 1349 have just dropped new single Enter Cold Void Dreaming and announce the release of their long awaited new album The Infernal Pathway

Due October 18 via Season Of Mist, the new record promises to be "journey through chaos and madness, darkness and peril, terror and annihilation." 

Since their 2003 debut, Liberation, the Norwegians have been unleashing aural hellfire upon the world with their intense old school black metal soundscapes and scathing, ultra-fast aggression. 

They released albums almost as rapidly as they played their instruments, following up Liberation with 2004's Beyond the Apocalypse and 2005's Hellfire. The Infernal Pathway will be the band's seventh full-length album.

In 2018, the Munch Museum and Innovation Norway chose 1349 as one of four bands to create a song based on the paintings of Edvard Munch. As a result, the single Dødskamp was released earlier this year and will be featured on the new record along with their last single release Through Eyes of Stone.

Check out Enter Cold Void Dreaming below.

1349 are currently set to tour the US later this year and will be touring Europe with Abbath and Vltimas in 2020.

New record The Infernal Pathway is now available to pre-order here.
