IATT - Unleashes New Single/Video From Forthcoming Album

Philadelphia based extreme metal band Iatt has recently shared a brand new video clip for the track "Seven Wandering Stars" (featuring Jake Superchi from Uada), taken from its new upcoming album Magnum Opus, which will be out on 27 May via Black Lion Records.

The band comments: "'Seven Wandering Stars' is sure to haunt the listener with its infectious melodies and a hook that is brimming with epic grandeur. The song’s poetic search for enlightenment and evolution is carried by a relentless and rhythmic strike while featuring hexes evoked by the endless chants of Jake Superchi (Uada)."

Meticulously crafted to pick up thematically where its predecessor left off, on Magnum Opus the listener is catapulted from the 1700s (Arsenic Ways) further back in time to a much darker, older world and the esoteric sciences of Alchemy. It was in this time man aimed to harness the world around him, bending the natural elements in a quest to obtain power, knowledge, control, and even immortality itself. Alchemy was the key to unlocking the secrets of existence and elevating one's self to the pinnacle of enlightenment through transmutation and manipulation of the earthly elements. It was only through the process of Magnum Opus (the great work) that alchemists could harness the elementals in their purest form to create the Philosopher's Stone - the key to power, enlightenment, and immortality.
 
Just as in alchemy itself, creating this album has been a journey of transformation; a period of great growth as individuals and as a unit. It’s through adversity, struggles, and the forging of the elements - of literal blood, sweat, and tears - Iatt strive to transcend and elevate to their highest self, "the great work", Magnum Opus.
 
Magnum Opus was produced by Joe Cantamessa and got mixed and mastered by Marcos Cerutti. Stunning cover artwork by Nightjar art of Adam Burke. Furthermore, the album features guest performances by musicians from Uada, Rivers Of Nihil, Emperor, Windfaerer and more.
