Swedish black metal group Watain issued two-track seven-inch single ‘Nuclear Alchemy’ on October 31st, 2017 through Century Media Records.
Watain issued the following statement: “‘Nuclear Alchemy’ is the sound of an eager beast let loose from its cage at last. A song of violent fire, impending doom and of necks craned in ecstasy. A dissolving injection of power and force into the coagulated veins of black metal and a first glimpse into the abyss that shall be opened in the beginning of 2018. Meanwhile, stand by for conflagration.”
