After taking the world of rock music by storm with last year's surprise hit »Amber Galactic«,which was nominated for a Swedish Grammy and accompanied by a European tour that left fans speechless, Swedish classic/progressive rock supergroup, Swedish classic/progressive rock supergroup THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA are set to release their impatiently awaited next album, »Sometimes The World Ain't Enough« on June 29 via Nuclear Blast.
Today, the band releases a first video trailer in which they talk the first three songs of the much anticipated new album. Learn more here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7d9X0i5S5o
Recently the band released the first single and music video off the new album, entitled 'This Time' - Listen and watch here: https://youtu.be/9QdHI0if_xk
Commented the band: "Recording the video for our first single ”This Time”, was like combining different dimensions in a space cocktail. Numerous times during the video shoot, band members had to call the tax authorities, to confirm their names in the register, to make sure they had not lost all contact with reality. The result is surely mesmerizing and will take you on a journey that will be hard to digest. This is also our first video featuring the ”The Airline Annas”, our beautiful and super talented back up singers. They certainly made this video sparkle. The song itself, is the album opener and might not be representative for the whole album - no song really is, but we just like it that way. We make albums and each and every song leads it‘s own little life and together they form a celebratory album with class, hooks and a bass that could walk a million miles without stopping for a drink. This trailblazer of a song used to be just ours, now it‘s yours too. Enjoy!”
