Northlane have released their new single Afterimage, taken from their upcoming EP Mirror’s Edge. The track features a guest appearance from Ian Kenny of Karnivool.
“Touring with Karnivool changed my perspective on songwriting by showing me a solid groove is more interesting than some flashy technical bit. Writing a good groove means you can exploit it in different ways while still keeping it interesting over time,” says guitarist Jon Deiley. “Karnivool influenced Northlane by showing us that songwriting and nailing every transition live is more important than jumping around. We hopped on the Asymmetry tour years ago and were still riding the success of Singularity when we discovered pretty quickly some fans just want to stand and enjoy you playing the music perfectly. I think that’s where our unhealthy hyper-critical evaluation of our performance came from!”
Mirror’s Edge is due for release on 12th April 2024, available to pre-order HERE.
