Northlane premiere new single "Solar" in Europe from next week

• “Few bands combine razor-sharp proficiency with spine-shaking heaviness the way Northlane do” Rolling Stone
• “This places Northlane in the highest tier of cutting-edge metal” Rock Sound
• "The Sydney metalcore group’s secret fourth album packs a punch” Kerrang!
• “Mesmer demonstrates an undeniable evolution” Metal Hammer

Northlane have dropped their brand new single "Solar". Lifted from their critically acclaimed fourth album "Mesmer", "Solar" is a groove-laden, multi-layered prog journey that showcases the incredible vocal talent of Marcus Bridge whose range and dexterity is unparalleled in heavy music today. The video, directed by long-time collaborator Jason Eshraghian.

"Mesmer" was released on March 24 no forewarning and completely blindsided fans and the industry alike. Northlane were lauded for presenting the album directly to their fans in such an unorthodox and exhilarating manner, and since it dropped, Mesmer has been streamed over 5.38 million times. Among the excitement, Mesmer was received with a raft of acclaim and labelled “triumphant” and a “masterpiece” by critics, shaping Northlane into one of the most successful Australian heavy music exports today.

The rest of 2017 will see Northlane take "Mesmer" to all corners of the globe, starting with appearances on the main stage at Download Festival (UK) and Hellfest (France). The band will also appear at Vainstream Rockfest (Germany), Jera On Air (Netherlands), Graspop (Belgium), Dissonance Festival (Italy), Rock For People (Czech Republic), Resurrection (Spain) and many more. Full UK, Europe and US tour dates will be announced soon.
