Track listing:
1. I Will Depart
2. Sun and Moon
3. Ever so Bold
4. Black Waves
5. Into the Sleep
6. Born of Nothing
7. The Final Failure

The album deftly wields the forces of light and dark in skilled measure. Icy guitars and bleak atmospheres encircle. String accompaniments burst into rapture. Powerful guitars shift between slithering rhythms and all-out assaults.

The grandiosity of the band's debut album arrives via intricate string accompaniments. The raw fury of their sophomore effort pummels. A sense of space and clarity evokes the band's third album. And the gritty darkness and progressive oddity evoke the fourth.

'Walk beyond the Dark' melds all previous efforts into an undeniable force, elevating the result to the next level. Abigail Williams take their rightful crown as the lords of American black metal.

The melancholic futility of despair. Surrender to the mysterious void.

Relesae date is November 15th, 2019 (and December 13th, 2019 for the vinyl edition), via Blood Music.
