Polish black metal band Batushka have signed with Napalm Records, and we can only hope that means new music is on the horizon! The band also announced that they will be embarking on a winter 2023 European tour with Hate.
The group comments on the signature:
“PILGRIMS! We are happy to announce that we have signed with Napalm Records for the release of our next new album. We have a mutual understanding regarding the telling of this new story and the spreading of the gospel of BATUSHKA all over the world. Be on the lookout for our new album, and get ready to live the BATUSHKA experience all over the world! After traveling across North America and Mexico for our first long pilgrimage there, we dare say this tour goes way beyond our wildest expectations! We were surprised and touched by the welcome! We already know that we will be back on stages around the world as soon as possible – not only with a new show, but also with new songs and a new story. Apart from that, with blessing – BATUSHKA “
Napalm Records A&R Manager Sebastian Münch adds:
“BATUSHKA are without a doubt one of the most creative and innovative black metal bands of recent years. We had the pleasure of hosting BATUSHKA live at this year’s edition of Metal On The Hill festival in Graz, Austria and were immediately impressed with the band as a brilliant band and great artists. I’m super excited to be a part of the release of the new studio album next year. Welcome to the Napalm family.
