Black metallers Drudkh and Winterfylleth will be joining forces and releasing a new vinyl split EP next January 17th (January 21st in North America) via Season Of Mist entitled Thousands Of Moons Ago / The Gates. The four-track release will include cover songs recorded by both bands, paying tribute to their early influences.

The split represents two genre challenging bands drawing on their own influences and re-imagining songs that are important to them. Ukrainians Drudkh continue to pay homage to old, talented, but forgotten Slavic bands after 2010's Slavonic Chronicles, their previous covers EP.

Luckily for you, the EP will also be released digitally. As for the CD format, a new compilation will also hit the stores on January 17th/21st. It is entitled Eastern Frontier In Flames, and will include all Drudkh's tracks from Thousands Of Moons Ago, as well as the Anti-Urban and Slavonic Chronicles EPs, which have never been available separately on CD so far. So, good news all around.
