Swedish black metal band SEID have revealed "Urdseiðr", the second track from their sixth album Dystopolis, via a premiere at No Clean Singing. The record comes out on December 11 through ATMF.
"Urdseiðr" closes the album. It follows "Wandering The Fields Of The Slain", the song SEID shared when we reported the album announcement in October. Dystopolis sets the Viking-era values of honor, courage, loyalty and belonging against an impersonal modern society, and the music moves between raw Nordic aggression, progressive structures and wide atmospheric passages. The label calls it the band's most mature, personal and ambitious work to date.
SEID are led by Seiðr on vocals, with Pär Johansson on drums and Alex "Phil A. Cirone" Purkis on bass; Herjann Svolnir and John Doe play guitar as session members.
The tracklist released with today's premiere runs to ten songs:
