I had an awesome chat with Niclas Engelin from THE HALO EFFECT about many things, the formation of the band, the reaction to the first album, touring Australia and New Zealand in 2023, the feeling you have years later realising you’re performing on the same stage as one of your early guitar heroes from your earliest concert experience, and of course the upcoming album, ‘March Of The Unheard’. Check it out.
Gothenburg’s rising stars, THE HALO EFFECT, are back with a powerful new announcement – their highly anticipated second album, March of the Unheard, will be unleashed on January 10th, 2025, via Nuclear Blast Records.
Following the massive success of their critically acclaimed debut Days of the Lost, March of the Unheard delivers a triumphant continuation of the band’s signature sound. Packed with soaring melodies and electrifying energy, the new album promises to exceed fan expectations.
The first single from the album, ‘Detonate,’ is an upbeat anthem that blends melodic hooks with relentless energy. Accompanied by a thrilling music video, ‘Detonate’ sets the stage for what promises to be yet another landmark release, delivering a strong message for the unheard: “Break the chains of this deadlock, before we detonate!”
Guitar wizard and main songwriter Niclas Engelin comments: “Damn, time flies fast when you have so much fun touring, playing festivals, and creating new magic. Are we hitting album no. 2 already? Still running high from the energy from Days Of The Lost, and it’s been a blast!”
