Prepare yourselves, mortals––as 1349 unleashes Inferior Pathways, the latest onslaught from their forthcoming album, The Wolf and The King. This infernal hymn channels the quintessence of 1349: unrelenting, blast-heavy, and furious. Inferior Pathways is a seething maelstrom of chaos and carnage, and it’s the perfect example of why 1349 are the ultimate masters of black metal.
Wreak havoc with the virulent guitars and manifold blasts of this third single that ties an iron spine of classic headbanging riffs to an inexorable groove – a flawless execution of raw, blackened power. 1349 continues to stretch the boundaries of the genre, infusing their relentless blast beats and searing guitars with an atmosphere of apocalyptic elegance.
Recorded at Amper Tone in Oslo, Norway, and New Constellation R.M.P. in Orlando, Florida, The Wolf and The King was produced and mixed by Ravn and Jarrett Pritchard (Eulogy, Pulchra Morte). The album promises a tempestuous journey through eight tracks of pure, unadulterated black metal, from the voracious onslaught of the previously release single The God Devourer to the sinister depths of Shadow Point.
The Wolf and The King is out October 4th on Season of Mist.
