[PRESS RELEASE] 

On July 30th in Europe and July 31st in North America, the Chicago-based black metal outfit NACHTMYSTIUM is set to release Silencing Machine, their 6th full length album and next celebrated chapter in the band's storied career. Recorded at Engine Studios with the band's own synths/electronics specialist Sanford Parker (YOB, PELICAN) handling Producer duties, Silencing Machine is, as front-man/lead guitarist Blake Judd puts it, "A f*ckin' black metal record".

To pre-order Silencing Machine, please head over to CM Distro for a variety of CD/LP formats and bundles that include NACHTMYSTIUM patches and shirts.

For a preview of Silencing Machine, be sure to check out the album's two recently released singles: "Borrowed Hope And Broken Dreams" and "Silencing Machine". To find out what inspired the NACHTMYSTIUM catalog, a mix-tape of influential tracks (assembled by Judd) can be heard here on Cvlt Nation.com.
