NIGHTFALL post update and recording details on new album


The Gauntlet Greek Metal Gods NIGHTFALL have returned with a brand new, bone-crushing record to stake their claim as the rightful heirs to the Greek metal throne! Astron Black & the Thirty Tyrants is a symphonic death metal tour-de-force steeped in epic flavors and bombast, with fresh faces providing new insight and drive to the classic NIGHTFALL sound.

The album's being recorded in various places with Soundlodge (Germany) being the main studio. It has been produced by Efthimis Karadimas (Athenian Echoes) and co produced by Jorg Uken (known from his work with God Dethroned, Dew Scented, and Sinister). His experience behind the recording desk and his soul in recording booth as the new drummer of the band is a great plus for the whole production and for everybody truly into metal drumming the old classic metal way!

The about 43 minutes long, 12 track album is expected to be ready soon. Main recordings have been complete, proceeding to post production stage as we speak.

Mixing and mastering to follow right after promoting a massive sound combining uniquely European roughness with US guitar expertise. Certainly an album not to miss. Official release planned for summer/autumn 2010 worldwide, while an introductory video clip is expected to come forward in spring 2010 just to haunt your summer lull. Because the Tyrants were not dead, but only sleeping...

NIGHTFALL was formed in 1991 in Athens and have released seven albums since then. After the temporary fold of their wings for a few moments-cum-years, they enter the scene again with a brand new opus under the magnificent title Astron Black & The Thirty Tyrants!"

NIGHTFALL is:
Efthimis Karadimas (vocals)
Evan Hensley (guitars)
Stathis Kassios (keyboards)
Jörg Uken (drums)
