FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Old Moon Announces Self-Titled Debut Album – Out November 5, 2024

Prepare to dive deep into the haunting and melodic realms of sorrow as Old Moon announces the release of their highly anticipated self-titled debut album, dropping on November 5, 2024. For fans of Swallow the Sun, Harakiri for the Sky, and Gaerea, Old Moon blends the power of blackened melodic metal with heart-wrenching lyricism that speaks to the darkest corners of human emotion.

Born in the damp, brooding atmosphere of the Pacific Northwest, Old Moon is the creation of Michael Priest (Gone In April, Idolatrous, ex-Boudica), whose vision is to craft music that tells the tale of life’s deepest sorrows. Themes of depression, grief, loss, and death form the emotional backbone of Old Moon’s lyrical content, offering listeners a cathartic escape through its evocative soundscapes.

With the new album, Old Moon marries the intensity of post-black metal with the melodic intricacies of death metal, creating a unique sonic experience. Accompanied by lush orchestration and immersive guitar melodies, the band weaves a rich tapestry of sound that both strikes the mind and embraces the heart.

Michael Priest shares his vision behind Old Moon’s music:
"Our songs are stitched together by themes of personal struggle, loss, and death. But within these dark spaces, there is a certain beauty in the melancholy – a kind of solace for those who have felt the weight of the world."

About Old Moon:
Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Old Moon is the brainchild of Michael Priest, who brings his experience from the Pacific Northwest metal scene to form a band that blends melodic death metal and post-black metal in a distinct and powerful way. With their self-titled debut, Old Moon seeks to carve out a space where emotional depth and sonic beauty collide, offering a cathartic experience for listeners drawn to dark, introspective themes.

"Old Moon" will be available on all major streaming platforms on November 5, 2024.
