NOCTIS IMPERIUM - New EP Featuring Drummer Nick Barker Out This Month
August 14, 2010, 14 years ago
Anti-religious metal outfit NOCTIS IMPERIUM alongside Abyss Records have set August 17th as the release date for the band's upcoming EP, entitled Nihil. The band is currently streaming a selection of tracks featured in Nihil at their official MySpace page, including the song 'Unus In Nihil', which is the one that inspired the EP's title.
Songwriter/vocalist Isaias "Aeneas" Guilarte comments: "'Unus In Nihil' is a re-recording of an older track, updated with new lyrics and arrangements that fit the evolution Noctis Imperium has gone through the years. It was also what triggered the decision to release Nihil, which we feel it's a good sample of what's to come. This old-new track reflects where we're heading to as a band and the atheistic message we're embracing."
Featuring the legendary Nick Barker (ex-DIMMU BORGIR, CRADLE OF FILTH) on drums, Nihil is just a sample of the hard work Noctis Imperium have been doing since inception. The EP contains songs from their upcoming full length, The Age Of The Golden Dawn, plus a handful of unreleased and live tracks recorded over the course of 2009.
