WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM recently announced the unexpected release of Celestite, an instrumental, experimental companion record to 2011’s Celestial Lineage.
Celestite sees the band take a deeper excursion into the crystalline synthesizer-driven domains that have long intrigued them. With the aid of producer Randall Dunn, the band unearthed a hidden soundscape that is only loosely tethered to their familiar sound, yet is still unmistakably the work of WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM.
The North American release date for Celestite is set for July 8th, marking the maiden release on the band’s new label, Artemisia Records, which will be their outlet for future recordings.
Celestite track listing:
1. Turning Ever Towards The Sun
2. Initiation at Neudeg Alm
3. Bridge of Leaves
4. Celestite Mirror
5. Sleeping Golden Storm
Additional information on the creation of the album as well as audio samples will be released in the coming weeks.
WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM will return to the road this summer in conjunction with the release of Celestite, with a run of West Coast North American July tour dates just announced and more to follow.
