The time has finally come! After more than seven years of silence, DIMMU BORGIR mark their epic return and unveil the first song of their new full-length album Eonian, due to be released on May 4th viaNuclear Blast. This first track off the new record, the symphonically charged “Interdimensional Summit”, comes with a music video shot by Patric Ullaeus, who had previously worked with the band for the clips of “Progenies of the Great Apocalypse”, “Sorgens Kammer – Del II” and the award-winning “The Serpentine Offering”. The song represents the more epic side of a devilish and diverse album, which pays tribute to all eras of the band’s 25-years-long history. Watch the music video for ‘Interdimensional Summit’ below.
Being one of the successful extreme metal forges on the planet, DIMMU BORGIR have been dominating the symphonic black metal genre for 25 years. The songwriting core of DIMMU BORGIR furthermore consists of charismatic vocalist Shagrath, as well as the string wizards Silenoz and Galder, but other familiar faces also emerge from the darkness: Drummer Daray and keyboarder Gerlioz are still part of the team, and Gaute Storaas helped with the choral arrangements for the majestic voices of the Schola Cantrum Choir. As the title Eonian indicates, the band’s 10th full-length release is dealing with the illusion of time and marks a tribute to both the band’s own past as well as the Norwegian black metal history.
