Anemoia

Northlane's seventh studio album arrives October 30, 2026, self-released through Immortal Music Group, with Jordan Fish (ex-Bring Me The Horizon) as executive producer. Sparked by an Evian Christ set that sent guitarist Jon Deiley chasing the emotional scale of trance, Anemoia runs euphoric synth work straight into the band's heaviest material since their early EPs. Dayseeker guest on the title track.
