Flamboyant Nightmare's "The Fall" EP Launch Gig at Evil Corp with Apo//o and Backlit

Blistering the lines between grunge and melodic metal, Brisbane’s Flamboyant Nightmare are here to introduce their genre bending, high octane tunes with the release of their debut EP ‘The Fall’. Featuring exhilarating fretwork, vibrant synths, cinematic orchestral arrangements, and a groove-oriented rhythm section bolstering Rachel Kate’s powerhouse vocals, the group delivers infectious melodies akin to Metallica and Halestorm.

"The Fall" is a collection of songs that delve into dark fantasies, where nightmare masters and circus cults lure you into their realms, joined by songs of empowerment and demanding change when you aren't happy with the way you are being treated. Guitar driven, gritty and fast paced, this EP wants you to remember your worth, and fight for it, whether it means walking away from toxic people or standing up against those who want to oppress you. The stories within these songs immerse you in shadows, then light the way to lead you onto a brighter path.

From extravagant Victorian Gothic-esque outfits, Kate’s deep gutturals and resonant cleans, chant along choruses to adrenaline fuelled instrumentation rooted in heavy metal riffage, grunge/heavy rock inspired rhythms, and killer 80’s throwback elements,  Flamboyant Nightmare’s explosive live performances are not to be missed. Rumours say that if you mosh just right, their unofficial fifth member ‘Cap’n Flammy’ might even make an appearance.

Joining Flamboyant Nightmare to celebrate this EP release are two amazing local bands; industrial synth metal legends 'Apo//o', and the doom hardcore masters 'Backlit'.
