The Nightmares announce debut album ‘Séance’

THE NIGHTMARES have announced their debut album!

Titled Séance, the upcoming album from the Welsh noir pop band is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Venn Records (UK and Europe) and Equal Vision Records (USA/Rest Of World).

Speaking about the debut album, bassist Benjamin T. Mainwaring says, Séance is a record born out of a shared love of the macabre… a longing to express the darker thoughts and deeper emotions of life. Channelled through the practise of attempted communication with spirits from beyond this world.

We started to dip our toes into the world of the Séance, and the experiences we went through would inform the writing of the record. I am totally convinced that what happened in these experiments were real. And they have stuck with me. I have nothing but respect for the spirits and I understand the gravity and weight that comes with communication with other worlds. It is not to be taken lightly.”

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Heartless. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming debut album, following on from From Above, which was released back in November last year.

Speaking about the new song, the band says, “life can feel relentless… like you’re constantly fighting against the tide. And after experiencing heartbreak, it’s easy to grow cold. This can often be perceived by others as being heartless. However, the reality is it takes an awful lot to learn to trust again once that bond has been broken. Heartless is a song about learning to trust someone again.”
