Napalm Records is proud to announce the signing of the UK's black metal legends, Winterfylleth. To celebrate this new partnership, the band unveils a new album, The Unyielding Season, set for release on 27 March. Making a stand, Winterfylleth's ninth album is a social commentary wrapped in meticulously crafted poetry and prose. Where the preceding album, The Imperious Horizon (2024), described an ominous, malevolent force lurking in the distance, The Unyielding Season now explores said threat becoming a reality. The raging wildfire to its predecessor's calculating, icy-cold, Winterfylleth's first offering for their new record label is a reflection and a rebellion against the turmoil tearing individuals apart. It is a cry against the unsustainable weight of fear and the pressure to be pushed into the world by the agents of an unresting, unyielding force for evil.

The first glimpse into the infernal release is "Heroes Of A Hundred Fields". Winterfylleth weave an epic story into a raging battle hymn, describing brave minds joining forces against a common oppressor to fight for their freedom.

Winterfylleth about "Heroes Of A Hundred Fields": "'Heroes Of A Hundred Fields' is framed in a wartime, battlefield setting and uses the premise of soldiers coming together, united as brothers, to fight against a foe who are powerful, oppressive, and domineering. It talks about how people should come together and fight for the freedoms they have and not succumb to those who would attack them and try to weaken them (or take them away entirely). There have been so many ideas and schemes pushed into the world over the last few years that only serve to erode people's personal freedoms, slowly, little by little, until they are gone. This song talks about 'lighting the beacons of rebellion' against those who would seek to undermine the way of life and freedom that we all – hopefully – hold dear".

Where our surroundings grow more challenging every day, Winterfylleth offers a pause for respite and resistance. The world is on fire, and The Unyielding Season is a warning.

Winterfylleth about The Unyielding Season: "2026 marks a year of big changes for Winterfylleth! A new label, a new member, a new album, and the landmark of 20 years making music together. We are enthused by what this new chapter will bring, and as a result, we are now able to share our ninth album, The Unyielding Season, with the world. It is also a powerful and virulent first output, through which we seal our new collaboration with Napalm Records. In many ways, the new album is a reflection on – and a rebellion against – the turmoil's and fears that are tearing the lives of many individuals apart. It is a cry against the unsustainable & constant weight of malevolence and pressure being pushed into the world by agents of an un-resting and unyielding force for evil. We hope the album resonates with you, stirs your soul, and gives you a source for hope. But, we also hope it makes you ask questions of your own circumstances and gives you pause to consider the unnerving state of the world we all share." Link
