NIGHTRAGE: Another New Song Available For Streaming

September 5, 2011

"Hate Turns Black", a brand new song from multi-national thrashers NIGHTRAGE, can be streamed at this location(Facebook "like" required). The track comes off the band's fifth album, "Insidious", which will be released on September 27 (one day earlier internationally) via Lifeforce Records. The CD features guest appearances by Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE, FIREWIND),Tomas S. Englund (EVERGREY),Apollo Papathanasio (FIREWIND, SPIRITUAL BEGGARS),John K (BIOMECHANICAL) and the band's former frontman Tomas Lindberg (also known for his work with AT THE GATES, THE CROWN and LOCK UP). Lindberg appeared on the band's first two albums 2003's "Sweet Vengeance" and 2005's "Descent Into Chaos" before being replaced by Jimmie Strimell, who sang on 2007's "A New Disease Is Born".

Commented singer Antony Hmlinen: "['Hate Turns Black'] is one of the first songs we wrote for this record. To me this song takes you on a great ride. Very old-school Gothenburg feel in the pre-chorus and a traditional metal feel on the rest. This is NIGHTRAGE to the bone."

Commented the band: "We recorded the music at Zero Gravity studios on Athens, Greece with our great friend Terry Nikas at the helm. He did a fantastic job and provided us with an amazing environment and atmosphere to make the best record possible.

"Antony had the pleasure as well to work on the vocals in a very different setting with Ryan Butler at his Arcane Digital Recording studio in Arizona. Ryan has been assisting us with demo sessions since the last album and it felt very natural for us to try the final product with him. We then went to Studio Fredman located in Gothenburg, Sweden for the mix and master. Our longtime producer Fredrik Nordstrm and Henrik Udd worked long and hard to make the best out of what we gave them.

"We have recorded sixteen songs overall, and, as we promised before, our guest players actually need no introduction."

Current NIGHTRAGE vocalist Antony Hmlinen made his recording debut with the band on 2009's "Wearing A Martyr's Crown".

NIGHTRAGE is:

Antony Hmlinen - Vocals
Marios Iliopoulos - Guitar
Olof Mrck - Guitar
