Swedish blackened thrash metal pioneers, Witchery, will release their eighth studio album, Nightside, worldwide on July 22 via Century Media Records. The band have launched the music video for the new single, "Witching Hour", which can be found below.

The album was once again mixed and produced by Daniel Bergstrand (Behemoth, In Flames, etc.) and includes artwork by Andreas “Diaz” Pettersson.

Nightside features brief guest appearances on vocals by Jeff Walker (Carcass, on “A Forest Of Burning Coffins”, as well as guest guitar leads by Hank Shermann (Mercyful Fate, on “Left Hand March”), Simon Johansson (Wolf, on “Crucifix And Candle”) and Maciek Ofstad (Kvelertak, on “Don’t Burn The Witch”).
