NightWraith are releasing their new album, Divergence, tomorrow via What’s Left Records, and you can hear the whole thing with us first.

The proggy, melodic death metalers from Denver have blessed us with this a day early, and in addition to eight originals, it also features a cover of Pink Floyd’s “Us and Them.”

Vocalist guitarist Benjamin Explains says about the record: 

“We hope people can appreciate the risks we took on this record. We wanted to really kick it up a notch for anyone who already knows our music since they might be expecting that from us. We also don’t want to turn off any potential new listeners, so it was kind of a fine line between what current fans expect from us, and what brand-new listeners are willing to keep an open mind for. There’s really something for everyone on this album, whether it’s 80’s style guitar riffs, blast beats, electric piano, or guttural vocals.”
