The Halo Effect, the new project featuring Jesper Strömblad and Niclas Engelin (ex- In Flames), singer Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity), as well as former In Flames members Peter Iwers and Daniel Svensson, have announced details for their debut album. Days Of The Lost, is scheduled to arrive on August 12th via Nuclear Blast. To celebrate the reveal, the group has shared a video for the title track. The Theo Gabay along with Morgan Jansen-directed clip was shot in January at a rooftop location in Gothenburg called “Ringön.”
Frontman Mikael Stanne explains about the song:
“Days Of The Lost” is about finding your place in life, about making that outcast experience into something that propels you forward. We all met in our mid teens and we were all trying to find direction, motivation and meaning. Thankfully we found it in creativity and music and we shared this passion and made something from it that remains an essential part of who we are as individuals and as parts of a whole. So this is us reflecting on our past, while watching a new generation slowly but surely find their path. It’s about standing up, being your true self and about not letting anything stand in your way. Our choices and our paths have led to all kinds of things but we wouldn’t change a thing.”
