Official press release:

Prepare for Swedish black metal violence courtesy of Watain on Halloween as October 31 marks the international release date for the band’s savage new single, “Nuclear Alchemy”, taken from their new album set for release on January 5, 2018.

Watain comment:

‘Nuclear Alchemy’ is the sound of an eager beast let loose from its cage at last. A song of violent fire, impending doom and of necks craned in ecstasy. A dissolving injection of power and force into the coagulated veins of black metal and a first glimpse into the abyss that shall be opened in the beginning of 2018. Meanwhile, stand by for conflagration.”

The “Nuclear Alchemy” single will also include an exclusive B-side: a cover version of Hungarian cult act Tormentor’s “Beyond”. The 7-inch will be released in two editions, which are strictly limited to 1,000 copies each!

Pre-order the red vinyl from the band’s official store and the black vinyl from Century Media’s store.
