US blackened-death metal hottest newcomers Wythersake have revealed the details of their debut album 'Antiquity', set to be released on March 26, 2021 on Scarlet Records. The tracklist is as follows:

1 Prediluvian
2 Antiquity
3 The Advent
4 From a Serpent Spoken
5 Iniquity
6 Through Ritual We Manifest
7 Lamentations
8 Feast Upon the Seraph Within
9 Unto Light
10 My Profane Goddess

Combining the sophisticated and progressive/melodic side of the 90's Scandinavian death-black masters with sheer American fierceness and frenzy, Wythersake is the band that the extreme metal scene has been craving for a long time. Formed in 2016, the Washington D.C. quartet quickly developed a unique style and released a couple of acclaimed
singles online.

Lyrically, the concept of 'Antiquity' revolves around apostasy and Gnosticism: in the early Middle Ages, personal spiritual growth and knowledge and the eradication of ignorance became considered heretical and were replaced by salvation through unquestioning faith and piety and a focus on eradication of sin (by any means necessary). Wythersake is the much-needed antidote: an exhilarating symphony of destruction that will elevate your soul.

The evocative artwork by Alvaro Valverde/AV Ilustración beautifully depicts the themes of the album, which will be released in a 4-panel digipack.
