Sublime Eyes Announce New Album IV: The Serpent’s Coil and Drop Blistering First Single “Wrath From The Sky”

Norwegian melodeath band Sublime Eyes returns with a vengeance. Hailing from the stormy coasts of Stavanger, the group has built a name for themselves through relentless touring, explosive live shows, and a sound that fuses precision, melody, and pure aggression. Now, they’re set to unleash their most powerful statement yet: the full-length album IV: The Serpent’s Coil, arriving September 5, 2025 via Wormholedeath Records.

A New Chapter in Scandinavian Melodic Death Metal

IV: The Serpent’s Coil is more than just a continuation of Sublime Eyes’ journey—it’s a transformation. The band takes everything they’ve honed over the years and amplifies it: tighter grooves, deeper brutality, sharper melodies, and a sound that feels both massive and immediate.

“Less is more? Not for us,” the band states. “This album is about going all in—more riffs, more chaos, more heart.”

Expect crushing guitars, soaring solos, breakneck drumming, and vocals that swing from throat-ripping fury to anthemic grandeur. The production is rich and cinematic, yet still raw enough to feel human. Guest features bring added firepower, with standout contributions adding layers to the band’s already dynamic sound.

Fans of At The Gates, Machine Head, Insomnium, The Black Dahlia Murder, and Testament will feel right at home—but even longtime listeners might be surprised by the depth and atmosphere this album delivers.

First Single “Wrath From The Sky” Out Now

To kick off the campaign, Sublime Eyes have released the first single, “Wrath From The Sky,” along with a music video. Featuring guest vocals from Hallgeir Skretting Enoksen (Purified in Blood), the track is a furious, high-speed attack that showcases the album’s intensity from the jump.

What Critics Are Saying

While early reviews are still rolling in, metal blogs and community feedback have already been positive. One early listener from Metal Injection’s comment section described the track as “melodic carnage with a cinematic backbone,” while Metalbite recently called the band “a hidden gem of the Norwegian scene, steadily evolving without compromising their edge.”

About Sublime Eyes
