About NIGHTBORN:
NIGTHBORN is a thrash metal band formed in 2012 by Arda K. that initially started as a one-man project, though some of the compositions date back even further. Nightborn focuses on producing melodic thrash metal, blending an old-school sound with elements from the revival scene.
Nightborn’s first album Skyeless was released in 2017 and was mastered at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden, which has previously worked with artists such as Kreator, Arch Enemy, Dark Tranquillity, and Sepultura. The album cover art was created by Eliran Kantor, while the single artwork was done by Maximilian Mende. Nightborn’s lyrics often explore politically anti-system sentiments, the allure of dying and death, somberness, desperation, hatred and rage, serial killers and murder, the dark nature of the human mind, nightmares, and the night itself.
The band’s second album, Unhuman was released in 2022 and was also mixed and mastered at Fascination Street Studios. The album consists of fast, unrelenting thrash metal for the fans of great bands such as Slayer, Testament, Kreator, Sepultura and Exodus with additional dark melodic elements. The drum parts on Unhuman were performed by Krimh of Septic Flesh, Decapitated and Behemoth. Additional guitar edits were carried out by Gokalp Ergen, the vocalist of Mezarkabul.
Metal Injection premiered the video for “Grave Madness” from the Unhuman album on June 6th, writing “Nightborn’s new video for “Grave Madness” is pretty gross…the song also shreds”. The video was directed by infamous dark performance artist Louis Fleischauer. VIEWER WARNING! Discretion is advised as the video features REAL blood, skulls, bones, body modification, and actual hanging by hooks.
