Norway’s iconic ABBATH have released a video of a live recording of a new track. The video for the new song, titled “Fenrir Hunts” is streaming now at Blabbermouth.com.
Regarding the video, the band states: “We have performed “Fenrir Hunts” live since our debut concert at Tuska Festival in Finland. This led to the decision to record a few live songs properly. With the aid of a camera team, we have recorded three tracks in a live setting at the beginning of September. Along with “Fenrir Hunts”, which you can see today, there will be two cover versions coming up soon. Now, here is “Fenrir Hunts”, the first glimpse from our upcoming debut album!”
ABBATH previously announced they have completed writing material for their forthcoming debut record. The band states: “ABBATH is continuing to move from strength to strength and has finished the writing process for the band’s debut album. Having signed to Season of Mist earlier this year, we can now announce that we will unleash the record in January 2016.”
To celebrate and commemorate the release, ABBATH have scheduled their album launch show in London on January 23. The band comments: “With every great release, there is a party to go with it – and this album is no exception. As such, the London show that was scheduled for September is now moving to Saturday 23rd of January 2016. All tickets remain valid. PRIMORDIAL and CONAN will still be coming along for the ride, alongside Metal Hammer UK DJ’s, and more.”
The band also decently announced an Australian tour kicking off later this year on October 15. A full list of confirmed tour dates can be found below. Additionally, the band recently announced their first ever European tour. The tour, kicking off on January 29, sees the band travel through Europe alongside BEHEMOTH, INQUISITION, and EN TOMBED A.D.
