DIMMU BORGIR have released a music video for their new song ‘Ascent’, which is the second single from their forthcoming studio album, ‘Grand Serpent Rising,’ that is set for release on May 22nd.
Shagrath had this to say about the track, “Musically, ‘Ascent’ is more ferocious and direct than the first single, ‘Ulvgjeld & Blodsodel.’ Together, the two tracks showcase the musical scope of the album in a great way. From the outset, we’ve said that Grand Serpent Rising stands as one of our most diverse records to date, and these songs underline exactly that.”
Silenoz added “‘Ascent’ is about the grand serpent rising through your spinal cord. It is not a pretty experience but it is a necessary one – in order to reach higher consciousness and levels of understanding. It’s a voyage of transformation and surrender.”
