NEW ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT AND SINGLE
After 6 long years we are finally back with our new album ‘Gateways’, releasing July 10th on Avantgarde Music!
TRACKLIST:
1. Dawnrays
2. And the Paintings Fall
3. Lunar Tear
4. Occultation
5. Epitaphs
6. Vvardenfell
7. The Road Ahead
We can’t express how happy we are to present Sojourner in its ultimate form. We’ve channeled the hardships and challenges of these years between to create what we truly feel is our best album to date. A labor of love that also showcases the debut performance of our new permanent co-vocalist Heike Langhans (ex-Draconian / Remina).
We also present our new single: Lunar Tear. A song that encapsulates our sound as you know it while showcasing some of the evolution that you’ll hear on the new album. We hope you all enjoy it.

UADA: CANCEL ALL REMANING 2026 TOUR DATES

 May be a black-and-white image

Due to health and family matters, Portland, Oregon, U.S.A. based black metal warriors UADA have CANCELLED all remaining 2026 tour dates. 

 

UADA have posted a video for "THE PURGING FIRE", a track from the bands second release "CULT OF A DYING SUN", unleashed 5/25/2018 via EISENWALD.   

 

 UADA have posted a video for  "RETRAVERSING THE VOID", a track from the bands latest release "CREPUSCULE NATURA", unleashed  9/8/2023 via EISENWALD.  

 

 

 

 

 

FROM UADA: 

 

FAREWELL TOURING WORLD:
Due to circumstances beyond our control — including family surgery and some minor health issues within our own camp — we have made the difficult decision to temporarily step back from touring.
Canceling all live appearances in 2026 was not a choice we made lightly, but one that felt necessary. Family will always come first.
During this time, we will focus on rebuliding ourselves, caring for our loved ones, and beginning work on new material. We look forward to returning to the stage once the new album is complete.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
