West Virginia (USA) based black/folk metal duo Nechochwen will release a new album entitled Kanawha Black on the 13th of May through Bindrune Recordings. Today the band has premiered online the track named "Across The Divide", and you can give it a listen below. The band previously released a lyric video for the title track, which is also available for your viewing/listening pleasure below.
After seven years since the release of Heart Of Akamon, West Virginia's Nechochwen return, unveiling Kanawha Black. Fierce melodies and heartfelt composition/riff stylings further cement the rich and powerful legacy that Nechochwen has nurtured since their inception. Kanawha Black is a vibrant mix of uniquely black metal influenced aggression, up against moving classical instrumentation that unlocks an inspiring glimpse into what extreme metal can achieve.
Aaron aka Nechochwen explains the album synopsis: "Though Kanawha Black was inspired by events both factual and anecdotal in American prehistory and frontier history, the songwriting gradually progressed into an album that has a less earthy and more otherworldly atmosphere. As we tracked, mixed, and mastered this album over several years, Kanawha Black seemed to originate from and reside somewhere in the ether. On the surface, the songs’ topics continue to explore our region; Appalachia (specifically the Ohio River Valley of West Virginia and Ohio as well as the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania) continues to provide our greatest artistic influence. However, we hope that these songs will also convey to the listener that the essence of the past, even in fleeting moments in our modern lives, is still connected to us in many ways through natural mystery. Kanawha Black is our attempt to tap into the veil of this connection." Link
