Energetic as always, Halcyon Days deliver their newest output, their third studio album “Keep Myself From Sinking” on Nov 5th! The aggressive attitude of their sound takes the best out of metalcore’s breakdown affinity and atmospheric layers that might remind you of genre leaders like Architects, While She Sleeps, and Our Hollow, Our Home.
Based out of Oslo, Norway, Halcyon Days have released two EP’s, and two albums since their beginning in 2012. Their debut album '.ELEVATE' was frequently playlisted and recommended on Norway’s national radio, NRK P3. Two years after their debut album, they released their self-titled EP in 2016, scoring more than 350k total streams on digital platforms.
The EP was met with an amazing response worldwide, putting the band on the map outside of Norway. The band signed with Indie Recordings and released their second full-length album, with the title "Rain Soaked Pavements & Fresh Cut Grass" June 15, 2018. Metal Trenches (US) stated that the album is “one of the better metalcre releases of the year”, while PureGrainAudio (CAN) defined it as “a superb example of melodic metal/hardcore.”
The release hit 1 Million streams on Spotify and landed the band their first big shows outside of Norway at festivals like Summer Breeze Open Air, Reeperbahn Festival and High Five Summerfest.
The band have been working with legendary names in Metal as Daniel Bergstrand, Fredrik Thordendal and Henrik Udd for their upcoming third full-length. Without any doubt, with the upcoming studio album, Halcyon Days deliver a stellar production, making the album “Keep Myself From Sinking” a fascinating and spectacular post-metalcore sonic experience!
