"We hereby announce that in III years' time - upon our 30th anniversary - Watain's eighth and final full-length album will be released. The album will mark the closure of a thirty-year-long magical Work, the last crossroad of Watain, after which the band will cease to exist. The ending of a triad of decades during which we have shared our sacred path through this strange world with you, our loyal audience, on a steady course towards the beckoning darkness of The End."
"Over the course of the next three years, the reasons for this will be spoken of and accounted for. But for now we just want to say this: Have our songs and our art not always dealt with finitude and mortality, with DEATH and the beyond? Now it is time to claim our own conclusion, and shape it as we have shaped our stage and our songs, in the fires of will."
Watain will release its eighth and final full-length album in three years, coinciding with the band's 30th anniversary. The album will mark the closure of a thirty-year-long magical Work and the end of Watain as a band. Reasons for the decision will be spoken of and accounted for over the next three years. The group frames its ending around themes of finitude, mortality, death, and the beyond, and intends to claim and shape its own conclusion. New music will be written and shared, concerts will take place, and additional activities will be revealed in due time. Fans are invited to help shape the final years.
