Δελτίο τύπου: «Following their 2014 underground debut WITHIN THE CASTLE SHADOWGATE, on Sept. 16th 2020 ETERNAL WINTER unleashes a brand new opus - ARCHAIC LORE ENSHRINED: SONGS OF SAVAGE SWORDS and DARK MYSTICISM. The True Knights of Metal make their triumphant return with 13 tracks of dark and unique epic metal mysteria.

Based on tales of sword and sorcery, Gothic literature, pulp fiction and heroic fantasy, this collection is sure to please any fan of metallic blood and thunder! A fitting sonic tribute to literary masters such as Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, Michael Moorcock, C.L. Moore, and others, ETERNAL WINTER delivers the goods in royal story-telling fashion.

In addition to over-the-top epics loaded with vocal theatrics and shredding musicianship, the song cycle also includes a lengthy duet between Matthew Knight and David DeFeis of VIRGIN STEELE (THE DARK KINGDOM). Featured as well are the talents of Edgar Allan Poe interpreter/impersonator David Keltz. His haunting narration adorns the intro to the band's version of the classic STORMWITCH track MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH.»
