THENIGHTTIMEPROJECT

Debemur Morti Productions is particularly thrilled to announce that THENIGHTTIMEPROJECT are strengthening the ranks of their roster.

Not straying far from his most notable roots, THENIGHTTIMEPROJECT finds Fredrik Norrman walking a pleasantly nostalgic road for those familiar with his work in KATATONIA.

After a self-titled debut album (2016, Aftermath Music) and the “Anti Meridian” single (2017), the quartet are now working on a new album to be released under the Debemur Morti Productions banner in 2019.

The current line-up is: Alexander Backlund – Guitars/vocals, Fredrik Norrman – Guitars, Mattias Norrman – Bass and Jonas Sköld – Drums. A few notable guests will feature on what we anticipate to be a proper masterpiece!

In the meanwhile, dive into the “Anti Meridian” below:

HalcyonWay-promo-2016

METALHEADS FOREVER, one of the biggest metal entities out there (having today more than 94000 members), led by David Maloney, have posted online the April issue, featuring interviews with Alpha Omega roster band HALCYON WAY, alongside the interviews with TESTAMENT, KATATONIA, EMP Label Group’s MOTOGRATER, as well as the interview with David Maloney himself, and many more!

Read the HALCYON WAY interview here!

To read the interviews and the whole April issue, go here: http://www.mhf-mag.com

HALCYON WAY are currently at Audiohammer Studios in Orlando, Florida, recording their upcoming album, with producer Mark Lewis (Devildriver, Death Angel, Whitechapel) at the helm. This is the band’s first recording with new drummer Aaron Baumoel and the record should be released by Fall of 2017. The band has issued the update: “We are in the studio today with Mark Lewis, and we started lead vocal tracking. They sound amazing.”

Based in Atlanta, Georgia and founded in 2001, HALCYON WAY is the ultimate example of blue-collar work ethic, self-reliant bootstrapping, and hard work & perseverance in spite of nearly insurmountable odds. The band has released three albums worldwide through Nightmare Records/Sony RED, and performed in a dozen countries and counting. HALCYON WAY‘s sound cannot be neatly slotted into any sub-category of metal; but it can be described as heavy, catchy, technical, and above all, focused on mature songcraft. Watch the official video “Web Of Lies” here:
