Mysterious Type O Negative worship act Neon Nightmare announces debut album

Last month, the great metal label 20 Buck Spin signed a “mysterious” artist named Neon Nightmare, whose debut single “Lost Silver” pays clear homage to Type O Negative, right down to its artwork. The artist’s bio also references Type O Negative’s hometown of Brooklyn, as well as the hometowns of Black Sabbath, Glenn Danzig and the Misfits, and the Delta blues.

Now, Neon Nightmare’s debut album has been announced and a second song has been released. It’s titled Faded Dream and due November 1 via 20 Buck Spin (pre-order), and they’ve got more Type O Negative vibes on the album artwork (by David Seidman) and new single “She’s Drowing,” which you can check out below. Neon Nightmare’s identity is still being kept under wraps, but now we know that the album was recorded at Red Nova Ranch in Cedar Creek, TX with producer Jeff Henson (who’s also worked with Spirit Adrift, Midnight, Clutch, and more), and the album credits list guest vocal performances from The Bensonhoist Lesbian Choir, the name that Peter Steele jokingly used on all of Type O Negative’s albums to comprise whatever friends stopped by the studio to hang out and do backing vocals.

Check out both singles, the album artwork, and tracklist below, and read the initial announcement for more.
