I heard Assassins, the new album from Nachtmystium, over the weekend, and its even better than I thought (or hoped) it would be. I’ll get around to doing a full review before the album drops in June, but let me just say that these dudes take black metal to psychedelic new heights (Actually, I think they’ve already done that, but they really have outdone themselves this time. Again.)

So I was stoked to get this press release, which announces that 2008 will offer even more new Nachtmystium goodness than previously expected:

“First, the new Worldfall MCD will be released as a precursor to their upcoming full-length, and will only be available direct from Century Media as well as iTunes…

“The Worldfall tracks were originally intended for a split with Leviathan that has now been delayed due to legal issues with Leviathan’s record label. Nachtmystium will be recording new tracks later this year and releasing the split at a later date.”

Does that mean we might get THREE new Nachtmystium albums this year?!?! The thought makes me so happy I might have to go jerk off just so I can get my hard-on down and go out in public again.
