Napalm Records is proud to announce the signing of the UK’s black metal legends, WINTERFYLLETH. To celebrate this new partnership, the band unveils a new album, The Unyielding Season, set for release on March 27, 2026. Making a stand, WINTERFYLLETH’s ninth album is a social commentary wrapped in meticulously crafted poetry and prose. Where the preceding album, The Imperious Horizon (2024), described an ominous, malevolent force, lurking in the distance, The Unyielding Season now explores said threat becoming a reality.
The first glimpse into the infernal release is Heroes of a Hundred Fields. WINTERFYLLETH weave an epic story into a raging battle hymn, describing brave minds joining forces against a common oppressor to fight for their freedom.
WINTERFYLLETH about Heroes of a Hundred Fields: “‘Heroes of a Hundred Fields’ is framed in a wartime, battlefield setting and uses the premise of soldiers coming together, united as brothers, to fight against a foe who are powerful, oppressive, and domineering. It talks about how people should come together and fight for the freedoms they have and not succumb to those who would attack them and try to weaken them (or take them away entirely). There have been so many ideas and schemes pushed into the world over the last few years that only serve to erode people’s personal freedoms, slowly, little-by-little, until they are gone. This song talks about ‘lighting the beacons of rebellion’ against those who would seek to undermine the way of life and freedom that we all – hopefully – hold dear.”
