Metal Blade Records is proud to announce the signing of Yoth Iria, one of Greece‘s most revered and influential contemporary black metal acts. Founded by veterans of the Hellenic extreme metal scene, Yoth Iria embody the dark mysticism, grandeur, and spiritual intensity that have defined Greece‘s unique contribution to the genre, while adding their own distinctive twist.
"This new chapter with Metal Blade Records marks not only a huge step forward but also a true milestone in our journey. It is a great honor for us to join the roster of such an iconic label and stand alongside so many legendary bands," comments the band.
The band is currently working on their new studio album, set for release in spring 2026 via Metal Blade Records. Fans can expect a monumental and atmospheric continuation of Yoth Iria‘s legacy, pushing the boundaries of black metal with renewed creative vigor.
"Yoth Iria represents everything that makes the Hellenic black metal tradition so enduring: atmosphere, mysticism, and uncompromising artistic spirit. We are thrilled to welcome them into the Metal Blade family and to help bring their next chapter to the world," says Markus "Bart" Grasseck, European Label Manager at Metal Blade Records.
Before the new album‘s release, Yoth Iria will embark on a European tour as direct support to Nailed to Obscurity throughout November and December 2025. The band will bring their intense live performance to stages across Germany, Switzerland, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, and more.
