Blood Incantation return with their new album All Gates Open (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), will arrive on June 5th, 2026 via Century Media. Originally only available as part of the deluxe Absolute Elsewhere Artbook, All Gates Open, will be available as a standalone release for the very first time, featuring both the full soundtrack and the accompanying 73-minute documentary. Mixed and mastered by Arthur Rizk and featuring retro-futuristic analog collage artwork by Jodie Day

Writen in 2021, the four immersive tracks present a different dimension of Blood Incantation’s sonic identity: pastoral, ambient, and deeply introspective. Built from synth improvisations, acoustic instrumentation, and exploratory studio sessions, the material represents what guitarist/vocalist Paul Riedl describes as the “yang energy” to the shadowed atmospheres of Timewave Zero.

The included documentary takes viewers inside Berlin’s Hansa Tonstudios, where the band relocated for a month to write and record Absolute Elsewhere. Directed by Niklas Tschaikowsky and Tammo Dehn, the film offers an intimate and unfiltered look at the band’s creative process, daily life, and immersion into Berlin’s cultural fabric—featuring appearances by members of Tangerine Dream, Hällas and Sijjin.

Paul Riedl comments: “It’s not the next album or follow-up to ‘Absolute Elsewhere’, it’s the soundtrack to the documentary about making the album with songs that are from before.” He further adds: “The documentary deserves to be experienced, not just as content for the internet. The soundtrack captures the very first seed of what led to Absolute Elsewhere. This is where that era started.”
