Norwegian symphonic black metal outfit Dimmu Borgir are now streaming a second single from their long-awaited tenth studio album, “Grand Serpent Rising“. Late last month, the band revealed a May 22nd for that follow-up to 2018’s “Eonian“. While that record reveal was paired with the debut of “Ulvgjeld & Blodsodel“, today has seen the band unleash “Ascent” from that opus. Director Patric Ullaeus (Arch Enemy, Amorphis) was hired to oversee the below music video for this newest cut.
