Sworn to the Dark

Sworn to the Dark is the third studio album by Watain and was released on 19 February 2007 on Season of Mist.

[1] The song 'Legions of the Black Light' is dedicated to Dissection's vocalist Jon Nödtveidt who committed suicide in 2006.

"[2] Eduardo Rivadavia of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 of 5 stars, saying that the band "achieve a perfect balance between Venom or Darkthrone's outright savagery and straightforward execution, and Emperor's spiraling arrangements and progressive orientation".

[3] Scott Alisoglu of Blabbermouth.net wrote that "Watain is a band concerned not with experimentation or genre-bending, just the creation of ripping black metal songs that burn a hole in the soul and leave a lasting impact on the psyche.

[6] All lyrics are written by Erik Danielsson, except where noted; all music is composed by Watain
