Northlane are back with a brand new single called “Afterimage,” which can be streamed below. The track features vocals from Karnivool vocalist Ian Kenny and is off of Northlane’s forthcoming EP, Mirror’s Edge, which arrives April 12.
Speaking about the new single, Northlane’sJon Deiley has said:
“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. 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!”
