THE HALO EFFECT drop video for brand new single “Become Surrender”

Gothenburg’s Finest are back! THE HALO EFFECT present a brand new single to their fans with “Become Surrender.” The track has been a staple of their live shows for a while now and has quickly become a fan-favourite. 
It’s a multi-faceted song with neck-breaking riffs, grooving drums, and beautiful melodies which will leave you spellbound.

Mikael Stanne comments: “‘Become Surrender was written and recorded during the ‘Days Of The Lost’ sessions, but for some reason, we left it out of the album. It has been something we have played during festivals and on our tours and the response has been nothing short of fantastic, so we decided to release it in the interim before we start rolling out singles for the second album. The video was shot during our sold out show at Pustervik here in our hometown of Gothenburg in front of a few of our closest friends and hopefully the joy and love we felt in the room that night shines through. It’s a song about perseverance over distance and not giving in to despair or doubt. Turn it up!”

THE HALO EFFECT will join fellow countrymen of MESHUGGAH on their Spring 2024 tour. Don’t miss out on those dates!
