'WATCH “SEVENTH SEAL”

PRE-ORDER NINE

This Friday, Russian Circles will release their new album, Nine, via Sargent House, and today they present, “Seventh Seal.” 

Following the hypnotic “Eluvial” and “Empath,” “Seventh Seal" is the album’s dark closer. Taking inspiration from Cliff Burton-era Metallica’s penchant for pairing melancholic classical guitar passages with the blunt force trauma of their heaviest tracks, on “Seventh Seal,” the stark beauty of guitarist Mike Sullivan’s nylon string solo composition ushers in the band’s most unapologetically straightforward metallic assault.

Russian Circles’ North American Headline tour is also now on sale. Check out the full list of dates below.

Russian Circles have just wrapped up their 2025 US tour. Check out a great live review below and don't miss them in Europe in June.

“Last night, the Gothic was packed for Russian Circles and Pelican. Denver showed up in full force for this sold-out show, and I was stoked to catch my sixth Russian Circles experience.”

"Having caught Russian Circles five times before, starting in 2006 at the tiny Sokol Underground in Omaha, NE, I’ve watched their live show evolve over nearly two decades. Back in 2006, it was just three dudes on a dimly lit stage, relying purely on the power of their sound, and only one full length album under their belts."

“Fast forward to last night, and while the musical core remains the same, the experience has transformed. The light show has become as much a part of the experience as the music itself. Each song now has its own visual identity, with lighting that enhances the intensity of their music, and makes their show just that much better.”
