Forged in the asphalt-cracked underbelly of Houston, TX, NIGHT COBRA unleashes a blistering, high-octane take on razor-sharp heavy metal. Following their celebrated debut album released in 2022 on High Roller Records the band returns sharper, leaner, and more dangerous than ever with a new union with independent heavy metal purveyor Nameless Graves Records. Mixed by the great Mike Exeter (Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, etc.), ‘Beware the Dark Future’ is due on November 6 with two stunning vinyl variants, CD, and digital formats. The “Keepers of the Cult” are now unleashing the anthemic first single, which can be found exclusively via YouTube at THIS LOCATION.
‘Beware the Dark Future’ is now available for pre-order via Nameless Graves for CD HERE and vinyl HERE. The single will be available digitally at a later date.
NIGHT COBRA frontman Christian “Bakka” Larson comments, “As the world crumbles we give you an offering of apocalyptic heavy metal. This album is for those without hope and know that humanity has no future….”

Forged in the asphalt-cracked underbelly of Houston, TX, trad metal revivalists NIGHT COBRA unleashes a blistering, high-octane take on razor-sharp heavy metal designed to blow the future apart. Following their celebrated debut album released in 2022 on High Roller Records the band returns sharper, leaner, and more dangerous than ever with a new union with independent heavy metal purveyor Nameless Graves Records.
Fronted by Christian “Bakka” Larson, the driving force behind Necrofier, veteran of Eternal Champion and Venomous Maximus, and visionary creator/producer of the powerhouse Hell’s Heroes festival, Night Cobra carries the torch of true metal pedigree while injecting it with a lethal dose of swagger and attitude that can only come from a band that calls Texas home. The album was mixed by the great Mike Exeter (Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne) and also marks appearances from Texas metal masters Dobber Beverly (Necrofier, Insect Warfare, Oceans of Slumber) and Trevi Biles (Venomous Maximus). The album is bolstered by a guest appearance from James Rivera (Helstar, ex-Destiny’s End, ex-Vicious Rumors, ex-Malice).
