Avant-garde metal outfit In The Woods... has unveiled the second single and video, "The Things You Shouldn't Know", from its forthcoming seventh album, Otra, set for release on 11 April via Prophecy Productions.
In The Woods...'s guitarist and keyboard player, Kåre André Sletteberg, explains: "This single is an 8 minute power display as we take a dive back in time to bring back certain elements of 'what used to be'; and it also demonstrates how we take our roots seriously. This track is a hard-hitting melodic piece of art with smooth and beautiful vocal melodies blended with black metal elements on guitars. It's stretching from the darkest corners of the forest into the melodic meadows of our dreams and nightmares. When this piece was completed, we knew that due to the many elements, dynamics, and feelings worked into the song, it was a more than worthy opener for the album. Doom!"
