Metal Assault recently spoke with WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM drummer Aaron Weaver. Topics of discussion include the band's forthcoming album Celestial Lineage, the expansion of musical style as compared to the previous albums, the title, artwork, the impact of the North-Western landscape on their music, Jessica Kenney's contribution, the upcoming tour, creating 'album-oriented' music, and much more. Check it out below:

The cover art for Celestial Lineage, due out September 13th, was created by photographic artist Alison Scarpulla, and the package designed by Aaron Turner. The beautiful, organic layout puts the album conceptually right in line with the band's previous Two Hunters and Black Cascade releases, and fittingly completes this triad of releases from the band.

Celestial Lineage tracklisting:

'Thuja Magus Imperium'

'Permanent Changes In Consciousness'

'Subterranean Initiation'

'Rainbow Illness'

'Woodland Cathedral'

'Astral Blood'

'Prayer Of Transformation'

In celebration of the new album, the band will take to the road throughout North America in several waves to kick off the touring cycle in support of Celestial Lineage. With very D.I.Y. ethics fueling the tour dates, the horde will perform in many wooded locations and smaller, off-beat venues along the way. Some of these specific locations for the shows won't be announced until just days before some of the shows, where fans are urged to reference WITTR's official website for exact show locations and/or directions.
