Haken release new single “bleeding sky” with visualizer featuring a special guest

Author Benedetta Baldin - 12.6.2026

Haken have recently returned after a three-year hiatus with a new collection of tracks. Today, the British alternative-progressive metal band presents their new song “bleeding sky.” As with their previous track “in a fever dream,” this new song was co-produced and mixed by George Lever (Loathe, Sleep Token), resulting in one of the most emotionally raw tracks of the band’s career to date. For this track, the band recruited Adam “Nolly” Getgood (Periphery) on drums. Watch the visualizer:
