Nite - 'The Way' (official music video)

Fire
The age of deceit
Pain and fear rule these lands
A world ablaze

Ride out
For all nights to come
Truth shall be your ember blade
The morning star

Darkness
Silence
Mirror
Flame

Of all the stars in the sky
Keep your eyes on him
For he is the way
For he is the way

Father
Father of pain
He who fears not the dead
Shall find the path

Mother
Mother of time
Sands are running out my son
Now is all there is

Darkness
Silence
Mirror
Flame

Of all the stars in the sky
Keep your eyes on him
For he is the way
For he is the way

Of all the beasts on this earth
Keep your eyes on you
For you are the way
For you are the way

In solitude
Tormented by nightmares of
Gleaming archangels
Step forth child of light
A smile sharp as a knife
The prince at the end of the rainbow
Black is the school of the night
Black is the school of the night
In the light
Black is the school of the night

As one we ride
And brave the night
To brave the arrows
To brave the light

Οι Nite μας έρχονται από την Καλιφόρνια. Μπάντα κλασικού heavy metal με blackίζοντα φωνητικά από τον Βαγγέλη Λαμπράκη. Η μπάντα δημιουργήθηκε προ πενταετίας, με το ντεμπούτο της ("Darkness Silence Mirror Flame") να κυκλοφορεί τον Μάρτιο του 2020.

Δύο χρόνια αργότερα "βγήκε" ο διάδοχός του, ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "Voices of the Kronian Moon". Το ντεμπούτο των Nite θα επανακυκλοφορήσει σε cd και βινύλιο από την Season of Mist στα τελειώματα του δεύτερου φθινοπωρινού μήνα (27 Οκτωβρίου 2023) χωρίς επιπλέον τραγούδια...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Nite come from a long and storied line of heavy metal. The Bay Area gave birth to thrash titans like Metallica, and while it’s not what most metalheads imagine when they go to their happy place, Northern California’s sunny climate did inspire Death to cross over into death metal.

These San Franciscans carry that torch with pride. All five members have played in other bands that span from coast to coast, but they came together around Northern California in 2018. It didn’t take long before Nite were making their presence known, either. Their debut album appeals to old metalheads and newcomers alike.»

Bio: «The San Francisco Bay Area has a history steeped in forward - thinking, technically dazzling metal, and Nite carries that torch with pride.

Founded in 2018, their blackened heavy metal barrels towards the peril of an unknown future, while keeping one eye on the days when blistering leads once ruled the land.

Guitarists Van Labrakis (Satan’s Wrath, Mencea) and Scott Hoffman (Dawnbringer, High Spirits) let loose galloping riffs and harmonies that evoke the classic sounds of the N.W.O.B.H.M. with Labrakis’ grizzled voice driving their dark, melodic metal into the modern era.

With Avinash Mittur (Wild Hunt) replacing founding bassist Bryan Coons in early 2021, he and drummer Patrick Crawford (Serpents of Dawn, Older Sun) make up a rhythm section that’s fierce yet breathlessly precise: a freewheel pounding reminiscent of the early days of heavy metal, with a Rickenbacker - powered roar fueling the low end.

Nite's debut full-length Darkness Silence Mirror Flame, released in March 2020 by Creator-Destructor Records, earned widespread praise.

It showcased their fist-raising classic heavy metal that nearly every fan of the genre once fell in love with, but with a twisted and shadowy edge that the titans of old could never imagine. Nite is the flame of the past illuminating the darkness of tomorrow.»
