Costa Rican atmospheric industrial black metal entity Dusk have revealed details of their forthcoming album Bunker, set for international release on 20 February 2026. Marking the band’s sixth studio effort, Bunker stands as the culmination of a decade-long creative process, steering listeners onto a brilliant and unpredictable new path within industrial black metal.
This post-apocalyptic opus showcases Dusk at their most confident and thematically refined, delivering a heavier, more dynamic evolution of their sound. The record’s ballistic, martial energy—intertwined with dark-experimental electronic subgenres—deliberately deviates from the conventions of traditional black metal, carving out a distinctive sonic identity.
The album’s tracklisting and cover art have been unveiled, offering a glimpse into the bleak yet visionary world that Bunker inhabits. The announcement follows the release of Dusk’s latest EP Repoka in August 2025, a work that hinted at the project’s bold trajectory and set the stage for this ambitious full-length.
With Bunker, Dusk invite listeners into a soundscape of industrial intensity and atmospheric depth—an uncompromising journey through ruins, shadows, and resilience. Link
