Ukrainian black metal band Drudkh release video "The Nocturnal One"
28-02-2022
Ukrainian black metal stalwarts DRUDKH have released the official music video for the new song, “The Nocturnal One”. The video was originally not slated for release until later this year, along with a new record from the band. However, due to the increasingly dangerous situation in their homeland, being situated in the epicentre of the invasion, the band has requested that the video be released immediately as sign of Ukrainian resistance. The video comes courtesy of Season of Mist.
Watch “The Nocturnal One” below.
DRUDKH has always shown unwavering pride for their country through their music. This poignant statement is a testament to their fighting spirit and love for their homeland. The new record and its details will be revealed in time. Due to vinyl plant delays, the album release is delayed until late 2022.
Season of Mist has been in contact with Drudkh over the phone last weekend. They stated the following:
“Even though we weren’t supposed to share any statement or music until later this year, we are grateful to get this new track out here today. It represents HOPE, may it strengthen those who need it.“
Season of Mist states:
“Our hearts go out to DRUDKH and all our Ukrainian artists”.
