Abbath Announces New Album, Streams First Single

Abbath has announced a March 25 release date for his new album, Dread Reaver.

You can check out the first single, “Dream Cull,” via the below Francisco Munoz-directed music video.

Dread Reaver will be Abbath’s first since he got sober at the end of 2019, following a show in Argentina at which he was noticeably too intoxicated to play. He subsequently entered rehab.

The record was produced by Endre Kirkesola, Abbath, and Dag Erik Nygaard, mixed by Abbath and Kirkesola, and mastered by Maor Appelbaum (Mayhem, Faith No More, William Shatner, etc.). The album art was created by Bjørn Stian Bjoarvik.
