New album 'Crepuscule Natura' is due on September 8, 2023 via Eisenwald
+ Headlining North America later this year with support from Cloak and Ghost Bath
Enigmatic black metal masters UADA are now unveiling a brand new single, "The Dark (Winter)." The song is taken from the USBM outfit's upcoming full-length, 'Crepuscule Natura,' which will be released worldwide on September 8, 2023 via Eisenwald. The song can be heard below.
UADA comments, "The forthcoming album, 'Crepuscule Natura,' is an album themed based upon resurrection and a recall to the band's roots while simultaneously expanding its past sphere of growth."
In support of the forthcoming release, UADA will be embarking on an extensive North American headliner, which kicks off on August 30 in Denver, CO. The full itinerary can be found below and tickets are now on sale HERE.
The song will be made available on all streaming services this Friday, July 21 at midnight local time. Pre-save the single HERE.
'Crepuscule Natura' is now available for worldwide pre-sale HERE.
The album follows up UADA's 2020 release, 'Djinn,' which was regarded as "the most important record of the year" by Metal Insider, named one of the Best Albums of 2020 by New Noise Magazine, and regarded as "worthy of our your undivided attention at worst, and complete worship at best" for the Decibel Magazine October 2020 issue cover story.

Ever since the cloaked Pacific Northwest band appeared on the music radar, UADA has always been electrified by both polar worlds. Their echelon was stark and meaningful. Within the stretch of three albums as well as dense and triumphant live shows across the globe, they have not only spiked the map of extreme metal music but their unrelenting touring schedule and unbridled will to push forward into new horizons has also earned them a reception in all the extremes imaginable, be it worship or spite.
Five sonic vessels form the nucleus of 'Crepuscule Natura,' and within it`s 41 minutes, the record easily creates a sonic and aesthetic bridge between the band`s debut, 'Devoid of Light' (2016), and their sophomore effort 'Cult of a Dying Sun' (2018), only to forge onward upon the relentless path set forth with 'Djinn' (2020). Here, a more refined and muscular, yet no less melodic stronghold awaits. On 'Crepuscule Natura,' UADA provides all their memorable hooks, tasteful leads, and riding blasts in their distinct style, balancing their epic surging melodies with powerful spurts of aggression. Just like the band's smoke-heavy shows, the momentum and emphasis of their craft always stays grandiose, mythical, and triumphant – all the while making sure to birth a couple of new fan favorites and soon-to-be staple live songs.
'Crepuscule Natura', once again graced by the artwork of legendary Kris Verwimp and photography by Peter Beste, shows UADA on fire to unleash the marrow of black heavy metal.
