nachtmystium news life in black the haunted

Chicagoan blackened beasts NACHTMYSTIUM had an extremely successful 2008.

The band released their Century Media debut, Assassins: Black Meddle Pt. 1, to extreme praise from critics and fans alike, received "Album Of the Year" honors from Pitchfork’s Show No Mercy column and the New York Times, and appeared on many "Albums Of The Year" lists.

The band also spent time out on the road with mighty acts such as OPETH, HIGH ON FIRE, NIFELHEIM and WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM while also making their first ever trip to Norway to play the 2008 editions of Hole in the Sky and Gunfest.

Now the group has returned home to Chicago and are working on material for a new album that looks to be ready for a late 2009 release.

Nachtmystium are also gearing up for an exciting tour alongside labelmates THE HAUNTED and INTRONAUT with additional support coming from KYLESA. The trek will last throughout the month of April and should not be missed. Check out the dates below and get your tickets!
