As the world circles the abyss at gathering speed, Wiegedood have returned to provide a perfectly vicious soundtrack. Formed in 2014, the Belgian trio have built an unassailable reputation as purveyors of visceral and bleak black metal in its purest and most destructive form. Since unveiling their debut albumDe Doden Hebben Het Goedin 2015, Wiegedood have blazed an unending trail for musical darkness, bolstering their burgeoning notoriety with some of the most apocalyptic live performances in recent memory, and producing two subsequent albums De Doden Hebben Het Goed IIandIII, released in 2017 and 2018 respectively which hammered home the bands unique creative powers. Emerging once more, this time from the involuntary solitude of a plague-bound world, Wiegedood are back with their fourth studio album,Theres Always Blood At The End Of The Road. A ferocious tour-de-force, born of frustration and the ever-burning flame of hatred for the modern world, the new record marks a significant departure for this most ruthlessly singular of modern metal bands. Musically I think weve made our most uncomfortable record so far. Its once again faster than anything weve done before, and more unforgiving than the whole trilogy combined, says vocalist/guitarist Levy Seynaeve. To me, it feels like a soundtrack, for a movie yet to be made. A movie about the filthiest and most disgusting parts of human nature and society, and about the struggle we lead within, trying to overcome the fact we are all made from that same filth.
