Pierwszy od blisko ośmiu lat album studyjny będzie nazywał się "Eonian" i ukaże się 4.05. Fani znajdą na nim 10 premierowych kompozycji. Krążek wyprodukowany został przez zespół i Jensa Bogrena. Autorem okładki wydawnictwa jest Zbigniew Bielak. Wydanie albumu zbiega się z rocznicą 25-lecia zespołu, i jak podkreśla wokalista Shagrath, materiał jest swojego rodzaju hołdem dla historii Dimmu Borgir, a także dla historii norweskiego black metalu.
Eerie shadows are lurking in the dark corners of spring 2018; the spirit that denies, a force able to distort our conception of space and time. Over seven years, deathlike silence has filled the halls of the world's biggest black metal forge, DIMMU BORGIR, whilst powers have been gathering to resurrect the band right in time for their 25th anniversary. Now they finally mark their return with a vicious work of art that can be defined as timeless in the truest sense of the word: "Eonian". The lyrical theme of the Norwegians' tenth studio work follows a philosophical concept, dealing with the illusion of time and Luciferian codes: "Time, when not approaching it from the construct we're used to can't be defined and thus it is illusory", explains axemaster Silenoz. "There's only an 'eternal now', which the album title is already hinting at. When we travel between the worlds seen and unseen, the perception of time ceases to exist, it has no function. Our energy is our torch and our compass when we make rifts and pierce through our the veil - when we go beyond." Silenoz refuses to grant more information than that, hence why DIMMU BORGIR's albums have always been open for interpretation and felt somewhat like a dark room in which every listener believes to see something different in front of their light seeking eyes.
""Eonian" represents the illusion of time, everything that is and always has been. For us, it also marks the 25th anniversary of DIMMU BORGIR and the album itself is a tribute to our own history and the Norwegian black metal history", adds Shagrath.
