Portuguese black metal institution Irae are streaming their sixth album, In The Key Of Twilight, in full ahead of its official release on 28 November via Signal Rex.
With In The Key Of Twilight, Irae return with their most ambitious work to date: a concept album centred on overcoming oneself—both as a human and as the man who made god. Across its bleak yet transformative soundscapes, the record opens doors, breaks barriers, and forges new paths, rising from extinction into the light.
Marking a bold evolution in Irae's discography, In The Key Of Twilight fuses the band's trademark ferocity with an expansive, narrative‑driven approach. Each track unfolds like a chapter in a journey through destruction, transcendence, and rebirth. Link
