Enigmatic black metal masters Uada<\/strong> are peeling back the veil with the announcement of their upcoming acoustic album, Interwoven<\/em>, due out April 10 via Eisenwald Records. A stark reimagining of the band’s legacy, the release traces one song from each chapter of Uada<\/strong>‘s discography while also paying tribute to artists who helped shape their sound.<\/p>\n

To mark the announcement, Uada<\/strong> have unveiled a haunting acoustic rendition of Nirvana’s “Something in the Way,” accompanied by a new video. The video was filmed and edited by Karl Whinnery<\/strong>, directed by Jake Superchi<\/strong>, with Evan Gandy<\/strong> serving as co-director of photography, matching the song’s stark minimalism with equally bleak visuals.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the decision to include covers, which is something the band once swore off entirely: “When Uada<\/strong> was formed, a rule was set: no covers, in pursuit of carving a wholly independent voice. With Interwoven, we allowed ourselves to bend that rule. Recruiting a cellist for this project created a rare alignment \u2014 a moment to pay homage to one of the most formative and regional influences of my youth.”<\/p>\n

They add: “While staying close to the original arrangement, we allowed our interpretation to take on its own bleak, glacial weight \u2014 one that echoes through the song’s timeless sorrow.”<\/p>\n

That cello becomes a defining presence across Interwoven, lending cinematic gravity to acoustic versions of Uada<\/strong> staples like “Djinn,” “Devoid of Light,” and “The Dark Winter,” while also recontextualizing covers such as Rome<\/strong>‘s “Der Brandtaucher.” Interwoven<\/em> is available for pre-order now, with cover art photographed by renowned metal photographer Peter Beste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Uada<\/strong> and Mortiis<\/strong> are set to team up for a very special co-headlining North American tour in 2026 featuring exclusive anniversary sets and supporting performances by Jerome Reuter’s Rome<\/strong> and Wraith Knight<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Uada<\/strong> will be performing their seminal 2016 debut album Devoid of Light<\/em> in its entirety and a special Ceremonial Castings<\/strong> 30-year anniversary set featuring Wraith Knight<\/strong>. In addition, Mortiis<\/strong> shall be performing songs from his groundbreaking 2001 full-length, The Smell Of Rain<\/em>, along with other volumes of dystopian despair.
