Iselder announces fourth album “Gogoniant”

The one-man black metal band Iselder, formed in Wales during 2014, is proud to unveil the release date of his upcoming album Gogoniant which is set to be released on September 15th via Marwolaeth Records. The fourth Iselder album Gogoniant combines raw aggression with the poignant theme of Welsh oppression, delivering an unapologetic and powerful musical experience. The band is formed by its sole member Gofid.

The band’s music delves deeply into the essence of Welsh identity, promoting the language, heritage, folklore, and culture of Gofid‘s homeland. Iselder stands as a testament to the strength and resilience of Welsh traditions through the medium of black metal. Listen to the first single Saeson from the upcoming album Gogoniant below:

Gofid faced legal challenges when he was arrested on suspicion of inciting arson and criminal damage due to a controversial t-shirt he created. The shirt parodied the infamous “Burn Your Local Church” shirts, featuring the text “Burn Your Local Holiday Home” and an image of a burning cottage. As a result, Gofid‘s phone, PC, and all Iselder merch were seized, causing a delay in the release of the band’s second album, Metel Du Gwir Cymreig. All charges were eventually dropped, allowing Gofid to continue his musical journey.
