Guitarist/vocalist Conan reflects on the new single, saying, “With ‘Storm Of Strings,’ we pay homage to both the legendary Yanni and the great Baroque composer Antonio Vivaldi. This amalgamation of new age and classical influences showcases our evolution as musicians. It’s a true showcase of our metal identity.”

GREEN LUNG Announces New Album “This Heathen Land” and Releases First Single “Mountain Throne”

The United Kingdom’s finest purveyors of occult rock, GREEN LUNG, have unveiled details about their highly-anticipated third album, “This Heathen Land,” which is set to be released on November 3rd via Nuclear Blast Records. Accompanying this announcement is the debut of the album’s first single, “Mountain Throne,” a fusion of pyrotechnic guitar work and captivating hooks.

Vocalist Tom Templar shares his thoughts on the new album:

“We couldn’t be more excited to share ‘This Heathen Land’ with the world. This album is the culmination of five years of work as a band; an odyssey into the weird and wonderful world of British folklore that melds together our myriad influences – classic rock, doom, NWOBHM, horror film soundtracks, the BBC Radiophonic Workshop – and fashions something out of them that is utterly our own. ‘Mountain Throne’ was the first song we wrote for the album, and feels like a natural bridge from the old Green Lung to the new. We’ve always been inspired by the story of the Pendle Witches, and such an iconic subject required an epic rallying cry of a song – we hope that we’ve done these folk heroes justice!”

You can pre-order “This Heathen Land” in various formats

“This Heathen Land” is a true embodiment of the band’s artistic vision, fulfilling their longstanding aspiration to, in the words of vocalist Tom Templar, “create the definitive soundtrack to the folk horror film in our heads.” With this album, GREEN LUNG has forged a distinctive sound and identity while retaining the heaviness and captivating songcraft that endeared their previous albums to the metal underground. From cover art to vinyl inserts and lyrical themes, “This Heathen Land” is an intricately researched and executed heavy metal homage to the folkloric landscape of the UK.

Produced by Wayne Adams at Bear Bites Horse Studios and mixed by Tom Dalgety (Opeth, Clutch, Ghost), “This Heathen Land” marks a significant milestone for the band.
