Norwegian progressive metal outfit Connect The Circle has unveiled a new song called “A Sun Without Brightness”. The track is taken from the band’s latest LP, “Wolf In The Sky”. Listen to the track below.

The song transitions seamlessly between progressive metal and melodic metal, adopting a dark and heavy approach that encompasses a wide range of styles. The riffs are aggressive, and there is room for Dream Theater-style melodies, Leprous-style atmospheres, and a certain intricate sound.

Hailing from Norway, Connect The Circle is a progressive metal band blending dark, heavy riffs with soaring, intricate vocal melodies and epic arrangements. Formed in 2018, the band has carved out a distinct sound that pushes the boundaries of prog rock and metal.

With three albums under their belt—”This Is Madness” (2020), “Mother of Evil” (2022), and “Blinded by the Violence” (2023)—Connect The Circle continues to evolve. Their latest album, “Wolf In The Sky”, features guest performances from Baard Kolstad (Leprous/Rendezvous Point) on drums and Andreas Auby on organ/keyboards.
