High fives: Skeletonwitch have announced that they’ll release a new album, Devouring Radiant Light, on July 20 via Prosthetic. Which would be exciting enough, but they’ve also released the first single, “Fen of Shadows,” and holy shit, is it ever a rager. The band really leaned into their black metal influences here, and the song sounds all the more evil and epic for it. I can’t stop listening; this may very well represent the band’s best material since 2011’s Forever Abomination. Listen:

Gnarly, right? Right! Can’t wait to get my face ripped off by the rest of this album.

You can pre-order Devouring Radiant Light here. The band will spend the spring touring with Obituary, Pallbearer, and Dust Bolt. Get dates here.
