Covenant To Release Ninth Album “The Blinding Dark”

The Blinding Dark will make you feel the outrage and the sorrow of a band that refuses to smooth things over, put on a brave face and reach for false hopes. It’s staring into the darkness with eyes wide shut. It’s also a new chapter for Covenant. The trio that became a quintet hasn’t sounded this focused and so on target since the legendary album Sequencer 22 years ago. But there is nothing nostalgic about The Blinding Dark. It steers like an unstoppable Nautilus through the black waters, straight towards the future, never looking back.

The Blinding Dark will be released November 4th on Metropolis Records in North America. It will be available in a standard and deluxe edition. The deluxe edition comes with a bonus instrumental EP called Psychonaut, which was recorded at a private, live improvisation jam session.
