Black metallers Darkthrone have announced that October 20th will be the day they release their brand new studio album, "Dark Thrones & Black Flags."

The band has been keeping very busy when it comes to releases, releasing an EP and a full length album last year and a three disc box set last month.

What's Next?

They said that they are dropping the punk influence and going back to the raw primitive black metal. I cant wait.

Lol good stuff. My birthday's in September so the only metal albums I'll be after will be Metallica and Motorhead plus since I'm a huge rap fan I'll be trying to get hold of the new Sabac and Q Unique albums that drop in September.

Early or late September Diamond? Might you be a fellow Libra? Would not surprise me. Even if its rap albums, am glad that your birth month has fun stuff you enjoy to look forward to.

Because it seems like its going to be of the same vein as FOAD and The Cult Is Alive then probably not as much as you (but still stoked). If it was of similar style to ABITNS, UAFM, or TH then I would wet myself upon news as simple as this.
