SPOTIFY II DEEZER II ITUNES II MUSIC VIDEO II ORDER LP/CD
September 1st marks the release date of Night's third full
length album "Raft of the World" which will be released through The
Sign Records. The album consists of 9 ravishing rock hymns forged together by
the band during the fall of '16, and signifies a musical progression of the
band towards a more rock-based sound - without leaving their trademarked sharp
edged NWOBHM attitude. With a modern take on classic rock 'n' roll combined
with more sinister lyrical themes, this album invites the listener on an
increasingly organic and diverse journey compared to its predecessors.
"Raft of the World" was recorded, produced and mixed by Ola Ersfjord
(Tribulation, Dead Lord, Lizzies, Honeymoon Disease) with additional recordings
(drums & bass) by Linus Lundgren at Studio Ganymeden in their hometown
Linköping. Ola Ersfjord contributed to a broader production and soundscape
including instruments such as organs, acoustic guitars and percussion to name a
few, which they consider has brought the album a unique sound that stands out
in comparison to other contemporary rock bands. Mastering was done by Chris
Common (The Mars Volta, Chelsea Wolfe, Mastodon) and the artwork is made by the
talented artist Mattias Frisk (Ghost, Vanhelgd, Vampire, Trap Them).
Night is a quartet hailing from the plains of Östergötland, Sweden. They started out back in
2011 and have released two full length albums and two 7" singles followed
by several tours and festival gigs (Muskelrock, Hell over Hammaburg,
Headbangers open air, Metal frenzy) all over Europe.
Known for their fierce and intense live performances, Night have built up a
reputation as an entity to count on. Today the band consists of Oskar (vocals,
electric guitar), Sammy (electric guitar), Joesph (electric bass guitar) and
Dennis (battery).
"This album is a progression of the whole concept that
is Night - both personally and musically. I felt a dire need to express myself
on a more personal level, which hasn't really been a priority for me before we
started to work on the new songs. Living in a world gone mad, constantly
surrounded by people who's lifestyle is basically rooted in greed unfortunately
brings out the worst in otherwise "good" people. It makes you think
about what is actually important in life which also triggers the creative and
philosophical flow that I really think has been manifested in the new
songs."
- Oskar, Night
The album is released on CD & Vinyl.
