WINTERFYLLETH�s The Threnody Of Triumph Set For
September 25
Release Candlelight Records
today confirms September 25 as the North American release date for The
Threnody of Triumph, the third full-length album from England �s WINTERFYLLETH. Recorded in Wales with
producer Chris Fielding (Primordial, Electric Wizard), the album delivers ten
new conceptual compositions from the black metal quartet. LurkersPath.com
already notes, �The Threnody of Triumph
takes the blueprint laid down by The Ghost of Heritage
and The Mercian
Sphere and builds a monument of utter
brilliance upon an already superlative foundation. Riffs pummel from all angles. The majestic scale of
the thing is so inspiring that a palpable feeling of grandeur becomes the
dominant subtext, each section swelling into an impossibly emotive
crescendo.� Vocalist/guitarist
C. Naughton says, �The Threnody Of
Triumph is a virulent and passionate
album that represents the WINTERFYLLETH of 2012. It represents a
continual progression of the band and is a document to our determination to push
ourselves further than we have before. On this album we celebrate the lives of
those ones lost by contrasting the darkness of loss with the joy of celebrating
their memories through the medium of a Threnody; a deathly ode to the memory of
ones lost.� The
Threnody of
Triumph
follows the recent reissue of WINTERFYLLETH�s
debut album, The Ghost of Heritage and well-received live appearances at
Belgium�s Graspop and France�s Hellfest Festivals. With key performances still
to come in the months ahead, the band is eager to bring a cross-section of their
music to the masses leading up to and through album release. �We will be playing
some new material at Wacken Open Air festival in Germany on August 4 and are
excited to bring the music back home at Bloodstock Open Air on August 9,� says
Naughton. �We hope to see some of you down the front this
Summer.� WINTERFYLLETH combine vicious
yet moody, folk-inspired black metal that harkens back to the early days of
Enslaved and old-school Ulver. The band�s lyrics delve into tales of England �s
archaic history, recounting major events, battles. They draw inspiration from
sites and scenery gracing the countryside that has played an integral part in
the country�s history. Formed in 2007, WINTERFYLLETH features Naughton with
drummer S. Lucas, guitarist M. Wood, and bassist N. Wallwork

a British black metal band with sufficient charisma, gall and artistry to draw
the spotlight back onto the scene where the genre was spawned in the first
