Preorders Open for Blackbraid’s New Album ‘Blackbraid III’
As we headed into 2025, one of the most anticipated albums on our radar was the third full-length effort from Sgah’gahsowáh’s solo indigenous black metal project Blackbraid. Over the last couple of months we’ve gotten singles, but not much else.
With a little over a month left before Blackbraid III is released into the wild, pre-orders have officially opened up. Starting today, fans can order their copies ahead of time in various formats, including vinyl and cassette. In addition, there’s a new set of Blackbraid merch on the site, if you’re so inclined.
Blackbraid III will be independently released on August 8, but you can pre-order your copy today. (For European customers you can pre-order here.)
If you’d like to see Blackbraid perform live, they have a number of dates throughout North America with Lamp of Murmuur and Dödsrit planned for this autumn, with dates starting on September 18. You can find the full list of dates below.
