ALBUM NEWS: NONE to release second full-length album Life Has Gone On Long Enough on April 11

January 31, 2018
Last year, the enigmatic Depressive Black Metal duo NONE released their self-titled debut album, perfectly capturing the rain-soaked landscape of the Pacific Northwest and the feeling of despair.

On April 11, 2018, exactly one year to the date of their debut, a new full-length album entitled Life Has Gone On Long Enough will be released on Hypnotic Dirge Records. The album takes its haunting shape through eight organic tracks of foggy mountainous atmosphere and bleak music. On this new chapter, NONE delves deeper into the blackest woods to find abandonment, and developing its tortured personality further. Moving in and out like the long shadows of an ancient forest, the harsh musical passages of Life Has Gone On Long Enough intertwine and die through forlorn atmospheres, devouring and nourishing a hopeless life.

For fans of Woods of Desolation, Coldworld, Shining, Gris, Sombres Forêts.
