Old Night - Homebound [Official Music Video]
Released November 4, 2025.

Taken from the album "Mediterranean Melancholy" to be released on November 21, 2025 by Meuse Music Records.

---------------

Old Night is a Doom Metal band formed in 2015 by Luka Petrović from Rijeka (Croatia).

While deeply rooted in traditional doom metal, Old Night’s sound draws heavily from traditional heavy metal, progressive rock and atmospheric music, resulting in a style that is both expansive and emotionally resonant.

The band vision is to create innovative and original music, free from external expectations and limitations.


---------------

'Mediterranean Melancholy', Old Night's fourth studio album is a record shaped by history, myth, and mourning.
A reflection on the deep emotional bond between land, sea, and self, this record stands as a profound tribute to the most beautiful corner of the universe and the place the band calls home.

The album holds deep significance for Old Night, marking both a new beginning and a continuation of their artistic path.
While unmistakably and inimitably Old Night, the record does not dwell on the past. Instead, it pushes forward - deeper, darker and more daring - embracing the twists and emotional undercurrents that define their sound, now refined and elevated to new heights.

Each song explores a different facet of the band’s relationship with their homeland - from wistful memories of lost Summers and the comforting scent of the hearth, to profound reflections on time, water, and the cosmos.
The album blends personal history with timeless symbols: the hearth, the lighthouse, the sea, the storm.
The result is a journey that feels both intimate and mythic, grounded and cosmic.
Rather than following a linear narrative, the album unfolds as a rich mosaic of emotional fragments, all connected by an unmistakably Mediterranean essence and carried by melodies as vast as the sea.

Featuring a renewed line-up, 'Mediterranean Melancholy' establishes Old Night as one of the most unique and compelling voices in the contemporary doom metal scene.
You are invited to immerse yourself in the mystical, melancholic world of Old Night for the next 44 minutes. Surrender to the waves and let them carry you on a journey into the unknown, across the seas of time and beyond the stars.

Lyrics:

These shores have seen their fair share of love
As the wives sent their husbands off to the sea
It's the tide that beckon and there's still time, he reckons
For sail he must - to set his spirit free

Time is unkind but there's still all these places to go
And there's a dream still hidden somewhere down below

There's no more need to wander
There's no more need to roam
The nights are getting longer
It's time to turn back home

These shores have seen more than their fair share of grief
As the mothers kept waiting, their sons never to return
For the sea gives and takes, far too many hearts it breaks
Against the stars and moon I see my hometown's lighthouse burn

The dawn is the harbinger of my destruction
As were Ides of March for Rome
I can already smell the hearth from here
But I ll never make my way back home
