New track streaming on our YT channel!
Portuguese black metal force IRAE return with their most ambitious work to date, In the Key of Twilight, a concept album about overcoming oneself, as a human, and as the man who made god. Across its bleak yet transformative soundscapes, the record explores opening doors, breaking barriers, and forging new paths, rising from extinction into the light.
A bold evolution in IRAE’s discography, In the Key of Twilight combines the band’s trademark ferocity with an expansive, narrative-driven approach. Each track unfolds like a chapter in a journey of destruction, transcendence, and rebirth.
To celebrate this path of darkness and devotion, today, we present a new song from the upcoming album “In the Key of Twilight.”
