First time listening to this band and holy SHIT

born and raised in the pacific northwest this is what the trees sound like when you're alone in the forest

0:00 Born from the Serpent's Eye 9:35 The Old Ones Are with Us 18:12 Angrboda 28:15 Mother Owl, Father Ocean 30:49 Fires Roar in the Palace of the Moon

Purchased this so fast I got a nosebleed.

Just bought this absolute masterpiece on CD and I'm so excited!

Came here from Agalloch... Am not regretting a second of it. Outstanding Performance 100%.

Perfect! Tracklist: 1. Born from the Serpent's Eye 00:00 2. The Old Ones Are with Us 09:35 3. Angrboda 18:12 4. Mother Owl, Father Ocean 28:15 5. Fires Roar in the Palace of the Moon 30:48

I started listening to black metal to feel more sad and depressed but now I feel more happy and powerful than ever thanks a lot BM 👿🖤🤘

This music makes me feel like I'm a ghost haunting the woods, wandering in the night through the mist... but didn't figured out I'm not flesh anymore.

I cannot get enough of this masterpiece. This is from another world clearly

I've loved this band since they were "Teen Cthulu" living in the PNW has blessed us with the opportunity to see them perform many times. WITR, stand next to Agalloch as totally different in sound and approach, but brothers in pure atmosphere. Masterful.

Saw them last night with Behemoth and At The Gates. I had never heard of these guys prior. I'm in love. wow

definitely one of the best albums of the year

For those wondering what the female choir at 4:25 is singing. The lyrics are in Swedish. I took the time to write it down with a translation 👇 Sanden glider ifrån mina händer (The sand slips from my hands) Jag tar ett andetag (I take a breath) Se på den stjärnan, se på det ljuset (Look at that star, look at that light) Se på mitt hjärta, kallt och mörkt (Look at my heart, cold and dark) Bort från allt ljus, söker sig vattnet (Away from all light, the water seeks its way) In i ett djup, ut i ett hav (Into a deep, out into an ocean) In i ett djup, ut i ett hav (Into a deep, out into an ocean) In i ett djup, ut i ett hav (Into a deep, out into an ocean) 🌊🌑

This is awesome. I find myself unable to stop listening.

This is otherworldly, the spiritual nature of the sounds you produce are hard to comprehend. It's a short album, but the substance is so vast, one could spend many hours pondering it's depth. I am beyond grateful for this beast. I will immerse myself, I will come back different.

In glorious 480p, just how you want us to listen to it.

“Fires Roar…” is incredible and a perfect song to end the record.

I just played this album and then had to play it again. I just had to make sure I appreciated it enough the first go around 🤯💥

"The old ones are with us" is just perfect. Steve Von Till crushes!

This is one of the best sounding album's I have ever listened to.

This is beyond what i expected from the new album. Perfect!

1. Born From The Serpent's Eye Lend me your falcon skin Sky traveler Eyes turned upwards Red eggs spill Warships circle Copper shields bedeck Across the green meadows Over the river teeming with spears To the lake of stone Where nothing lives and nothing grows The many worlds below Ungulate with memory and sadness Through fathoms of green gilt enfolding Sanden glider ifrån mina händer Jag tar ett andetag Se på den stjärnan Se på det ljuset Se på mitt hjärta, kallt och mörkt Bort från allt ljus, söker sig vattnet In i ett djup, ut i ett hav [3x] [English translation: "The sand flows from my hands I take a breath Look at that star Look at that light Look at my heart, cold and dark Away from all light, meanders the water Into a deep, out into an ocean"] Noose tightens, hammer falls Thunderheads mount the shore Drenching twin rivers Born from the serpent’s eye 2. The Old Ones Are With Us Winter is dying The sun is returning The ice is receding Rivers are flowing The ground will be fertile The seeds they awake The ploughs will be charmed The spirits rejoicing The fires are burning The offerings are given The children are singing The old ones are with us We are becoming The drow command the fires to burn And the wine to flow Wraiths watch in envy Grapes and a chalice of gold Reign under the stars Laughter and song in the night Bring tears to their eyes And my soul thaws In the decadence of night The dead world stirs Here In the halls of Anwyn. The food of the dead lie untouched Four headed dragon Slit eyed Crouched Birthed Ennobling flame The blood flows 3. Angrboda Eagles Invocation of lighting Searing through the flesh Burning away the heartwood Opening purple throated gates Dripping honey comb Elders spawn Flower of youth Under rays of the black sun Mourning drums clash and wail Essence of frankincense Drifts in two directions 4. Mother Owl, Father Ocean Se på ditt hav Se på ditt hav Det består Det förstår Se på ditt hav Se på ditt hav Det förstår Hur du mår Hur du mår Det består 5. Fires Roar In The Palace Of The Moon Adorn her shrines with heather Call upon the water of Dannu Skyclad Bile, greatest of oaks Rise with the morning frost Cross the courtyard Cold moss and stone underfoot Born in the winter A maiden by spring Death comes in fall

A Masterpiece.

out of this world. amazing

This album is currently blowing me away as we speak finally got round to listening to these guys thanks to a work buddy reminding me off them "The Old Ones Are with Us" is a personal favorite of mine.

Thanks so much for this great music over the years. So excited to see new material!

Haven't been listening to full albums recently, this was a great place to jump back in. Thank you!

Absolutely amazing work. Well worth the wait.

masterpiece

Thank you for sharing yet another phenomenal piece of creation. This is fantastic!

"The Old Ones Are with Us" is great

Beyand any label, this is SUPREME!! Goosebumps

Love the artwork. At first it looks like people dancing around their home...but I just recognized that the house actually looks like a massive wolf head which is worshipped by the people.

Can't wait to see these guys in a couple weeks!

I cannot get enough of this album, lots of substance discovered upon every listen.

So happy I got the chance to experience you guys live in CA. Magnificent album!

Fantastic album. Listen it a week ago. Great work.

This is so great...! + the album cover is very beautiful

You don't imagine how overwhelmingly beautiful this "Masterpiece" is... Howling Gratitude Wolves!!! Infernal Hails Wolves in the Throne Room!!! :€

The wait has come to an end... Thank you!

I was there...Čo Vám poviem. Bol som v Bratislave, Randal Club,6,august 2017 and I meet a beautiful music.Suprised!. Now, I am Cascadian,forever and ever- So, this is the right wolves!

I love the waves at the end

Well done, WITTR! It's beyond expectations. It sounds fresh without loosing the distinctive energy that makes this band so great. My favorite song is The Old Ones Are with Us.

the best album in this decade what a relief of pure insight

Awesome album, fire, passión, darkness and melancholy.

This is insanely good

Incredible. Worth the wait.

One of the "new" great Black Metal bands! Immense, intense....

Now the only thing we need is Two Hunters on Spotify

So happy to have this, it's filling the void of Agalloch being gone!

Thank you! So epic! Have been waiting for this since Celestial Lineage! Now come play in Costa Rica soon!

This album is majestic #perfection

Damn KZfaq, you get me. This Industrial inspired Black Metal album is just freaking fantastical!!!!! Dark classical vibe mixed with some wicked ass screams. Dude!!! 🖤💀🖤 lol 🤯

Enchanting melodies !!!

Wow... impressive...thank you

My first run through of this album it felt a little underwhelming, but after my third listen start to finish I'm hooked. Can't stop listening. It's so good. Thank you for making this music!

Awesome álbum. Darkness melancholie, rage...ummmhh beautiful!!.

Wittr and chill ❤️

Masterpiece! Didn't think Americans did black metal this well!

Brilliant!

First time listening. Instant fan.

16:15 Adore that riff

It doesn't surprise me of how well this is.

Brilliant. Epic Orchestration. Majestic Desolation.

Thank you for being.

Album of the year

Man I've been hearing about these guys for a minute but this is the first time I actually took a minute and listened. I don't usually feel compelled to comment on KZfaq but my fucking jaw is on the ground right now. This is beautiful. I grew up listening to a lot of metal but moved away from it recently. For perspective COF Dusk and Her Embrace is one on my all time fav albums. This shit is so powerful, so moving. Cheers WITTR, you guys are making some ispired art.

Incredible album! I was positively shocked to hear Steve Von Till of Neurosis's voice in "the old ones are with us", what an amazing collaboration among great musicians!

These guys have something special. I only can say that It starts with their really original ideas and some tragic atmosphere. It even works for old fashioned underground guys like me.

The numbers of hours I've spent creating (art litterature) while listening to this is incredible. You've helped me become a better person a better creator. Thanks a million. I bought this CD when you were in Montréal and it warms my heart everyday.

Sounds amazing

Woah, getting shivers listening to this

c'est super! ça fait longtemps que j'espère un truc comme ça longue vie les " loups dans la foire du trône "

This is wonderful!

I'm glad you put this up yourselves so I can listen to it with good conscience. Didn't check out the leaks.

Great. Can't wait to see you in Poland!

This is amazing

Sublime!

Fantastic.

I know and heard 2000 bands that plays bm. This is the best album I ever ever heard. They have the true essence of nature and black metal. Masterpiece. Thanks for your music. Cheers from Argentina.

I like it, nicely done. Keep going.

I keep seeing this on Best of 2017 lists with tons of indie and pop. Solid album, but this has to be the trendiest metal album of the year. For whatever reason.

Best album yet.
