The Halo Effect have now officially premiered a music video for their latest single, “Cruel Perception“. Johan Carlén assumed the directorial duties for this clip, which pays homage to their hometown of Gothenburg, Sweden.
A January 10th release date has been set for the Swedish melodic death metal band’s upcoming sophomore album, “March Of The Unheard” . The Halo Effect‘s roster is comprised of numerous former members of In Flames, including guitarist Niclas Engelin, who stated of this track:
“‘Cruel Perception‘ is packed with guitar harmonies and melodies that sprung from my noodling on the acoustic guitar in the living room one late night with a coffee in hand, which turned out to be a true Melodic Death Metal anthem.
It’s funny how some songs turn out in the end from late night acoustic guitar noodling to full on Melodic Death Metal, but that’s the beauty with Halo, you never know how it’s going to sound in the end with everybody’s magic in the studio. We hope you will enjoy this song as much as we do and we just can’t wait to play this song live for you all!”
