Freshly out, and already in the Australian iTunes Rock chart, the new IN THE WOODS… album is streaming in its entirety below :
“Majestic and sophisticated… Immersive and mesmerising.” – Ghost Cult Magazine
“Clearly inspired… ‘Cease The Day’ is crammed with great riffs both doomy and aggressive, great vocals both crooned and screamed, and a fresh interpretation of past In The Woods… sounds.” – Your Last Rites
“A fine addition to a very solid discography, that plenty of long term fans and newcomers alike will find enjoyment out of.” – Noizze UK
“Each song on Cease the Day can be mentioned as a highlight… In The Woods… succeeds where other bands fail by really ensuring that every avenue taken, every branch followed all lead to the same place.” – Nine Circles
“Cease The Day is the expression of a band finding the magic of their past and conjuring a future out of what made them one of the most unique listens in the world. A bit more direct and punchy than its predecessor, Cryptic Rock gives Cease The Day 5 out of 5 stars.” – Cryptic Rock
“Cease The Day” continues to prove IN THE WOODS… as masters of whatever craft they choose to pursue with 8 genre-destroying masterpieces:
01. Empty streets
02. Substance vortex
03. Respect my solitude
04. Cloud seeder
05. Still yearning
06. Strike up with the dawn
07. Transcending yesterdays
08. Cease the day
Recorded partly in Brighton, England and partly in Kristiansand, Norway the international flavour was added to by the mix being undertaken in France by Frederic Gervais (Studio Henosis). Now armed with an album truly representative of the band both past & present, the band look to a brighter future with the spiritual cleansing that is “Cease The Day”.

Conquerors of countless styles and sounds, IN THE WOODS… began in Norway in 1991 from the dissolution of Green Carnation. Their debut “Heart of the Ages” stands as a black metal classic to this day and brought a new style of atmosphere to the genre that hadn’t been heard before. Not to be pigeonholed, their follow ups “Omnio” and “Strange In Stereo” saw the band take their style in completely different directions, exploring realms of progressive rock, doom, and avant-garde stylings.
Dissolving in 2000, IN THE WOODS… lay dormant for fourteen years, before re-emerging in 2014 under the wing of Debemur Morti Productions. This partnership saw the release of “Pure” soon after. “Pure” continues the IN THE WOODS… tradition of defying expectation. Sorrow laden doom passages and psychedelic keys herald blistering melo-death riffing and everything in between, all accompanied by the powerful voice of the newest member of the band, multi-instrumentalist, and vocalist James “Mr Fog” Fogarty. If “Pure” was any indication, IN THE WOODS… will be dropping jaws for years to come.
