The Halo Effect release official video for “What We Become”

Author Benedetta Baldin - 12.1.2025

January 10th marked the release of The Halo Effect‘s second album, “March Of The Unheard.” With the release of a music video for the featured song “What We Become,” the Swedish melodic death metal band—whose lineup includes many former members of In Flames and others—is kicking off that release. That clip was directed by Johan Carlén.

The wait is over! Our second album drops today and we could not be more proud of this one. The level of confidence, experience and love of the craft is beyond evident in these songs and to finally be able to share it with all you feels amazing. First up though, just to make sure that you get the album on day one, is our brand new video for the song ‘What We Become‘! This song is all about how our emotions can break us down and transform our very being through depression, self doubt and insecurity. The video which we shot in an ice cold barn in the middle of nowhere with director Johan Carlén gives the song the right kind of mystique and sense of being forgotten or silenced. Enjoy! Mikael Stanne
