Candlelight Records has confirmed October 26 as the North American release date for The Isolationist, the new album from KRIEG. Recorded at Volume Studios in Chicago, the nearly hour-long album will challenge the listener with its primitive yet complex sound. It is Krieg's sixth full-length recording, and the first since 2006’s Blue Miasma.

Working with producer Sanford Parker (NACHTMYSTIUM, PELICAN, YAKUZA), The Isolationist finds Krieg further experimenting with sound. The rage and dissonance fans have come to expect from the New Jersey band emerges even more frenzied making the journey through this album far more intense than on previous efforts. Vocalist Imperial admits, "The Isolationist presents Krieg at it's most evolved yet primal state thus far in fifteen years of causing problems for people's hearing. It is my ugliest and most personal child, going deep into the darkest places in my own history on earth. I'm a fucked up wreck, and this record shows that."

The Isolationist features performances from guitarist Joseph Van Fossen (NOCTUARY), bassist Wrest (LEVIATHAN), and drummer Chris Grigg (WOE). "It was an intense process, considering everyone only had a few days in and out due to their own hellish schedules. I was fortunate to work with dedicated artists who each brought their own identity to the project and a good understanding behind the meaning of the record."

'No Future'

'Photographs From An Asylum'

'All Paths To God'

'Ambergeist'
