The new album from Norwegian melodic metal-act Nergard is in the final mixing stages. The follow up to 2013’s Memorial For A Wish will see its release in April. A Bit Closer To Heaven is the brainchild of composer and mastermind of the Nergard-project: Andreas Nergård. “I Will Find You” is the second trailer to be revealed from the upcoming new album. Check it out below:
Nergård: “‘I Will Find You’ was written couple of years ago in the final days of the Memorial For A Wish session. I decided not to include it on that album because it was not ready both musically and lyrically. It has been through a series of updates before being recorded for the new album.
Originally it was meant for a female singer but in the end I ended up choosing Andi Kravljaca for this one because he has a wide range and sounds very good in the mid-range register which this song is based on.
What I like best with this song is the stripped-down sound, no distored guitars and its very floating atmostphere. It’s a dark lovesong based on the rather dark concept of the previous album Memorial For A Wish and the new one, which is Act 1 and Act 2 of a rock opera. This is a song that explores the softer side of the Nergard-project and I’d say it is closer to pop than metal and that was the intention. I wanted this album to be a nice mix of the genres I like the most, pop, rock and metal. There’s some really heavy stuff on it and some very soft stuff as well.”
