After seven years of sculpting sound and chasing the horizon β it's finally happening!
Our new album π π π π π is done, dusted, and heading to the press at @dunkpressing in the next weeks! It officially sees the light on September 19th, via @dunkrecords and @athousandarmsmusic π§‘
Described as:
βA bombastic record, consolidating yet expanding the bandβs elegant sound. Celestial Wolves are aging like fine wine β and sounding better than ever in their latest incarnation.β
β and who are we to argue?
This beast comes on double 180g Orange Smoke vinyl, single sleeve + insert, and is limited. The artwork? A stunning in-house creation by our own guitar wizard Dieter (see mockup for a taste).

CELESTIAL WOLVES V I I I V IS (finally) OUT! π₯³π₯³π₯³
A major setback pushed back the vinyl release but we're proud and thrilled to finally share it with you!!!
Originally hailing from Herzele, Celestial Wolves have been with dunk! since the very beginning and they're true local legends!
Thank you Robert for the kind words (it's nice to see you writing again! Go read the full review on blinkers removed dot com! π
______________
Emerged in 2011 from several music projects Celestial Wolves released its debut album Wood for Wood on dunk!records in 2013, sophomore LP "Illusive Landscape of Expression" in 2015 and "Call of the Void" in 2018. Now, 7 long years later, the band is back with a new line-up, and a whole new (double!) album!! π π π π π - pronounced βfive is fourβ is a bombastic record, consolidating yet expanding the band's elegant sound.
Written over the span of several years including a shift in personnel the band decided to work with producer Chiaran Verheyden for the arrangements and recording process. The recordings itself took place at dunk!records in March 2025 with the professional assistance of sound engineer Jannes Van Rossom who also delivered the mix and it was Laurens Grossen at Motormusic who mastered the album in June 2025.
Compared to the band's previous albums π π π π π is a collection of songs rather than to be a concept album and includes additional instruments such as a brass section (trumpet, trombone and bugle), percussion items (shakers, xylophone, tanggu drums), piano and string section (cello and double bass). Celestial Wolves are aging like fine wine, and sounding better than ever in their latest incarnation!
Order it now on our website and have a wonderful weekend! π
Thank you for your patience everyone who pre-ordered one!!! π«
Brrrrrr what a frosty day! π₯Ά
We even had some timid snow here at the plant, but we're keeping warm with some romantic tunes. Like our newly released @celestialwolves V I I I V (5is4), a candid, passionate, delicate post-rock affair!
Spiralling into two orange marble vinyl records pressed at 45rpm for maximum auditory delectation, V I I I V is a apft blanket of sound, a gentle embrace, and the perfect way to keep warm these weeks.
π₯Ήπ₯Ή And look at that perfect match between vinyl and sleeve detail π₯Ήπ₯Ή
More news tomorrow!!! π»
