TOBY KNAPP Reveals New WAXEN Album Details

Toby Knapp has announced information pertaining to his first post "retirement" music and Waxen's seventh album, High Plaines Bloodlust.

The guitarist explains: "High Plaines Bloodlust is kind of a concept album. Usually the lyrical topics deal with the occult or World War II and nuclear war. This time it was suggested to me to break free of the same old subjects and personalize it a bit more."

Knapp continues: "This is Wyoming black metal. My home state has a pretty dark history with the Johnson County War, The Fetterman Masacre and more. Some of my lyrics and music reflect those things and this is Waxen's most violent music. I think with this album and the predecessor, Die Macht Von Hassen, Waxen has established its own sound and a unique place in black metal history. I think we're looking at a release in spring 2025 definitely through our longtime home, Moribund Records."

High Plaines Bloodlust tracklisting:

"Battle Of One Hundred Slain"
"A Horse Named Fear"
"Hadamar"
"Black Nitrite"
"Red Clouds Over Kill Zones"
"High Plaines Bloodlust"

All music composed, performed and produced by Toby Knapp. Recorded at Kill Zone Studios in Big Horn, WY.
