Anonymous four-piece NYCTALOR have announced their debut EP titled "EP I: The Collapse", due to be released August 24th 2026.

Hailing from the 'ACT', NYCTALOR are a newly-formed band with a sound which they describe as: “the sonic collapse of existence through, atmosphere, dissonance and crushing heaviness”.

What makes NYCTALOR so intriguing is that Everything about these guys is crafted with intention. Their choice to hide their identities is stated as being a deliberate way for them to let their music speak for itself.

Drawing from black metal, death metal and doom for this EP, NYCTALOR defy the boundaries of genre with a focus on atmosphere, tension and crushing heaviness.

This initial EP release has been stated as being just the beginning for NYCTALOR, with "EP 1: The Collapse" marking the first stage of a complete audiovisual experience merging music, art and atmosphere to create a fully immersive world.
