I Bygone pubblicheranno il prossimo 12 dicembre per Svart Records il loro album di debutto omonimo e la band originaria di Boston ha svelato due singoli in anteprima. Di seguito il visualizer di ‘Take Me Home’ e lo streaming di ‘Shadow Rising’.

The visions of the night reveal the truth of light on Shadow Rising, the second single from Bygone‘s upcoming self-titled album. Propelled by a gallop that echoes the interplay of UFO’s late 70’s Way/Parker and colored by Marshall stacked blunt force in tandem with gliding Model D leads on keys, Bygone gives freedom to your brain to allow your astral plane to exist. For 5-minutes enter the distant dream of the Shadow Rising, reach the other side, and prepare for Bygone’s full-length album launch on December 12th, 2025, via Svart Records.

Boston based heavy metal act Bygone’s debut album is ready to soundtrack your cosmic explorations of an imagined past. Filled with Mainline Riders, Air Dancers, and Psychic Warriors, you could call it hard rock or heavy metal, but the album is probably closest to Métal Hurlant. This is hardly the first slab of molten black and silver forged by the members of the band, who have previously traveled the Iommic byways of configurations like Magic Circle, Blazon Rite, Concilium, Witchtrial, and Missionary Work. Here, they join together to forge new routes through the whirlpool where matter vanishes.

Through the album, the group journeys out-of-body with cuts like Lightspeed Nights, Into the Gleam, and Take Me Home drifting through degenerate stars and iron suns. Hear throughout taut Pete Way-inspired underpinnings, keyboard flourishes reminiscent of Don Airy‘s late ’70s work, and vocals that recall the emotion and grit of Buffalo‘s Dave Tice. Bygone is an infinite cosmos in a 12″ jacket, a heavy metal that feels not so much of the historical past as it does the never-quite-was.
