Legendary Swedish black metal formation Mörk Gryning has shared “A Glimpse of the Sky,” the second new single from their upcoming album, ‘Hinsides Vrede.’ The offering is the band’s first new full-length since 2005 and will be released on October 23 via Season of Mist, making it their debut to the label. “A Glimpse of the Sky” can be heard [below].
Pre-sales for ‘Hinsides Vrede’ are available HERE.
The band comments, “This is our homage to Bathory – the ‘Blood Fire Death’ era. It’s got a steady groove in contrast to most of the other songs on the album. The lyrics will speak for themselves: ‘Ripped apart / Our hearts are fed to the vultures / The soil has been cursed / Our souls like silent statues of stone.’”
