THE HALO EFFECT - Days Of The Lost (Red/Gold Vinyl)

"Days of the lost" by The Halo Effect, re-released on red-gold vinyl.

2020. In the year of the Corona pandemic, when the world was forced to standstill, five old friends set in motion an old idea that had been in the air for a long time - and which would eventually become a new band: The Halo Effect.

The members of The Halo Effect are masters of their craft, pioneers of the Gothenburg melodeath scene. Lead guitarists and melodic death metal maulers Niclas Engelin and Jesper Strömblad, lead singer and lyricist Mikael Stanne, are supported by the solid backbone and foundation of bassist Peter Iwers and his partner of over twenty years, the hard-hitting drummer Daniel Svensson.

Having known each other since early childhood in the late 1980s, the members began playing together in various projects in the 1990s before forming In Flames and Dark Tranquility, two truly iconic bands that would later dominate the Gothenburg scene. Both bands were particularly important forces behind the melodeath moniker: The Gothenburg Sound. A sound that reverberated far and wide across the globe, influencing countless metal bands throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. That was also the original thought behind The Halo Effect – to go back to the roots and explore what groundbreaking metal sounded like back then, before adding the experience and skill of what the members can bring to the table today. The result is an exceptional album and a true tour de force for melodeath fans, with echoes of the Gothenburg sound evident.
