NATTRADIO – The Longest Night – CD
€10.90
The album is characterised by a sombre and pervasive sense of melancholy that splendidly encapsulates themes of isolation and emotional struggle. Preferably listened to during the night’s darkest hours The Longest Night is a record that gently envelops you.
One of the band’s members by writing the following regarding NATTRADIO’s motives and sound perfectly characterizes the band:
“NATTRADIO was born out of sleepless nights. Every song is written and recorded between 01:00 and 05:00. The songs move through a nocturnal landscape we call Doom Noir – drawing from ’90s Gothic Doom, Darkwave, Ambient and at times, Noir Jazz. The goal is to capture night-time themes. These are stories from the hours after midnight, with grief as the central emotion.”

Nattradio (SWE) – The Longest Night
Rearing its head out of the seemingly endless darkness of the north, Sweden based NATTRADIO are a rather recent born, obscure entity with so far only one full length album to their name. If the strength of their second album The Longest Night is anything to go by NATTRADIO’s obscurity should be over soon, though.

Despite drawing inspiration from various sources NATTRADIO’s soundscape has certainly most in common with KATATONIA’s era beginning with Discouraged Ones. Especially the singer’s voice sounds strikingly similar to Jonas Renkse. So much so that one can only wonder if it’s actually the KATATONIA singer’s characteristic melancholic voice singing to the sound noir.
The Longest Night stands as an evocative journey through the labyrinth of melancholy, offering listeners a soundscape both immersive and introspective.
Appearing right in time to accompany you on endless strolls during the most melancholic season, we heartily encourage you to do yourself a favour and obtain a copy of this marvellous album!
NATTRADIO is Niklas and Martin, known for collaborations with Anders Fridén (IN FLAMES) & Jonas Renkse (KATATONIA).
