Featuring 13 new tracks, vocalist Shagrath said this new offering was a particularly exciting one for him and the rest of the band.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI truly feel we\u2019ve outdone ourselves musically on this album. It\u2019s been a long and demanding process, but seeing how it all came together makes it incredibly rewarding. Grand Serpent Rising reflects every era of Dimmu Borgir \u2013 This album carries echoes of every chapter of Dimmu Borgir\u2019s legacy \u2013 I believe our fans will recognize that, and find something within it that truly resonates.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>As for the album\u2019s title, guitarist Silenoz explains why it fits so well for what the band\u2019s offering.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt fits perfectly. Dimmu Borgir is a leviathan of a band on a grand scale and we are rising once again. While the serpent represents evil to some, for us it symbolizes something else: renewal, growth, knowledge, and liberation. Shedding our skin, so to speak. And let\u2019s not forget that February 2026 marks the end of the Year of the Snake, roughly the same moment this album was completed.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>You can check out the album\u2019s lead single \u201cUlvgjeld &amp; Blodsodel\u201d below. Dimmu Borgir will also go on tour with Behemoth later this year for the \u2018In League With Satan Tour\u2019.
