Following their recent signing to Terminus Hate City, The Noctambulant have announced the release of their forthcoming full-length album Revival, set for September 18 via the label.

This new chapter in their sonic narrative combines the traditions of Blues, Rockabilly, Goth rock and American Country with their signature black metal sound.

On the lead single "Skeleton Key", vocalist/guitarist R.

Thorne shares, "This track captures the desire to achieve salvation and transcendence — by any means necessary.

It tells the story of using one body to reach immortality in another.

The weakness of the flesh must be overcome in the pursuit of something greater." Musically, "Skeleton Key" unleashes a dire savagery through a blackened haze, with weighted rhythmic strikes soon erupting into a fury of high-speed intensity as the darkness consumes and an inevitable end becomes insurmountable.

Revival was engineered and produced by E.

Helvete and D.

Franseth at Tri-Rush Studios, with mixing and mastering handled by Daniel Thabet at Liquid Studios.

The album's cover art is designed by Dream Creatures.

The tracklist for Revival includes: "Repent And Be Saved", "Bring The Sorrow", "Apokalypsis", "Dark Dawn", "Macabre", "Interlude", "Skeleton Key", "Killing Tree", "Hell Ride", and "San Martino".
