A roundup of the latest news from Nucear Blast artists including updates on The Night Flight Orchestra, Wednesday 13, Avatarium and Ghost Bath.
The Night Flight Orchestra premiere brand new song, ‘Midnight Flyer’ – Amber Galactic pre-order
Swedish classic/progressive rock supergroup THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA (featuring members of SOILWORK and ARCH ENEMY) have released the first single off of their forthcoming third studio album, »Amber Galactic«.
Comments singer Björn Strid: “‘Midnight Flyer’ might be the ultimate THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA track, and all the emotions that we think a classic rock track should convey are on there. When you find yourself on a night flight across the oceans, you’ve just left everything you love behind and once you land you know that nothing will ever be the same. You’ve got nothing left to lose, and you just want to escape reality, no matter the cost. A melancholic over the top party anthem, about the deep personal insights you can only get at 36,000 ft with a stiff drink in your trembling hands, and the mysterious beauty that you hope will be there waiting for you when you arrive.”

Avatarium present first new song in exclusive live premiere & launch pre-order
Sweden’s doom darlings AVATARIUM are back to take the world by storm with their new album »Hurricanes And Halos« out on May 26th and will now deliver the first single ‘Into The Fire / Into The Storm’. This new track comes along with a bitter taste reflecting the current state of the world, and guitar master Marcus Jidell states:
“We wanted to get a raw and energetic recording to back up the powerful and dramatic lyrics of this song. Strange political winds are blowing at this moment and the question is:
Is the world heading into the fire?”
You can now stream or order ‘Into The Fire / Into The Storm’:
