Eksj\u00f6, Sweden-based melodic death \/ groove metal band Orbit Culture issued third full-length studio album Nija<\/em> in CD and digital format on August 7th, 2020 through Seek & Strike, with a digipak CD version following on August 21st. Limited edition vinyl versions of the album were also released by the label at a later date.<\/p>\n

Frontman Niklas Karlsson commented: \u201cI won\u2019t lie, this album has been the hardest and most difficult set of songs I\u2019ve ever worked with. Not so much by the musical side of things – the songs themselves went pretty fast to write. However, some technical difficulties with computers, hard drives, members leaving, guitars failing, and touring for the first time – which was an awesome experience by the way – has stalled the album quite a bit. This, though, may be the first time in our musical adventure that I\u2019m truly proud of something the boys and I have made.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nija<\/em> was produced, mixed and mastered by Niklas Karlsson.<\/p>\n

Cover artwork was created by Bahrull Marta (Abomination Imagery).<\/p>\n
