Nuclear Blast has set a May 22nd release date for this follow-up to 2018’s “Eonian”, titled “Grand Serpent Rising”. Producer Fredrik Nordström (Obscura, The Crown) led recording sessions for “Grand Serpent Rising” in Gothenburg, Sweden, carrying on Dimmu Borgir‘s longstanding collaboration with him.

I truly feel we’ve outdone ourselves musically on this album. It’s been a long and demanding process, but seeing how it all came together makes it incredibly rewarding. ‘Grand Serpent Rising‘ reflects every era of Dimmu Borgir – This album carries echoes of every chapter of Dimmu Borgir’s legacy – I believe our fans will recognize that, and find something within it that truly resonates. – Shagrat

Dimmu Borgir is a leviathan of a band on a grand scale and we are rising once again. While the serpent represents evil to some, for us it symbolizes something else: renewal, growth, knowledge, and liberation. Shedding our skin, so to speak. And let’s not forget that February 2026 marks the end of the Year of the Snake, roughly the same moment this album was completed. – Silenoz
