THE BEAST

Calm and melancholic, THENIGHTTIMEPROJECT’s new single ‘Merkurius’ ventures on into Prog-Rock territory without losing the severity and gravity the Swedes are known for. Combining the touching simplicity of ANTIMATTER’s early works with the best genre-breaking bands like GODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR have to offer, Fredrik Norrman (OCTOBER TIDE, ex-KATATONIA) and Alexander Backlund (LETTERS FROM THE COLONY) readily take up the strengths of their latest, “Pale Season” (2019), and develop them further. Alexander’s voice in combination with the soothing melodies evoke an almost dreamlike state in the heart and mind of the listener. Altogether, ‘Merkurius’ is nothing less than a unique blend of Nordic nostalgia. Directed by Bloudengaztia at Dronicon Films
