Embark on a journey through the ethereal soundscapes of Wolves in the Throne Room with their latest masterpiece, Primordial Arcana. This album marks their first release under Relapse Records and showcases the band’s evolution over two decades as pioneers of ritualistic black metal.
Crafted entirely by the Weaver brothers and Kody Keyworth at their Owl Lodge Studios in the heart of Washington, Primordial Arcana is a testament to their DIY ethos. The album opens with “Mountain Magick,” featuring soaring guitar melodies that elevate the listener to new heights. The track “Spirit of Lightning” serves as a touching homage to the profound bonds created through music, while “Primal Chasm (Gift of Fire)” delivers a cosmic auditory experience, embodying the hermetic principle of ‘As above, so below’.
As the first album featuring Kody’s contributions from the initial writing stages, Primordial Arcana is a blend of their signature sound with a fresh perspective. This album is not just a collection of tracks but a focused and ambitious statement that solidifies Wolves in the Throne Room’s standing among the best black metal records to buy.
