NIGHTBEARER - neue Single / Video veröffentlicht
German Death Metallers NIGHTBEARER have unleashed the second single from their upcoming third full-length "Defiance", set for release on June 13th 2025 through Testimony Records on CD, LP and in digital versions.
A video clip for the title track is available here: https://youtu.be/KrCzFtt9UfA
Vocalist Michael Torka comments: "With the title track, we pay tribute to our musical ancestry from Gothenburg, and we have forged a weapon that is both a fiery call to arms as well as a defiant roar. From its driving verses to the massive, thundering, epic chorus, we venture into new sonic realms. This track is a deadly blade pressed to the tyrant's throat. This is pure death metal, forged by heart and will, and ready to kill!"
A brutal war is raging between the forces of ancient superstition and scientific enlightenment: NIGHTBEARER are leading the charge with their crushing new album "Defiance". The German death dealers from the City of Paderborn in Eastern Westphalia have hammered out an album that retains their signature HM-2 chainsaw guitar sound and also maintains their unapologetic love for melodic death metal of the Swedish kind.
"Defiance" also marks another step in the careful but steady evolution of their sound by adding a black passage here and a doom-spiced moment there to their old school sound. The result is an overall much more atmospheric album, which perfectly suits its lyrical concept. The album is directly inspired by the renowned "His Dark Materials" trilogy of books by English author Sir Philip Pullman. The lyrics introduce key characters and events in the plot that revolves on a deeper level of meaning around humanity's emancipation from oppression by religion. NIGHTBEARER defiantly engage with the resistance to bring about Enlightenment 2.0.
