TOMORROW’S RAIN Reveals 3rd Single, “Muaka” (Feat. Attila From MAYHEM), From Forthcoming Album, ‘Ovdan,’ Out April 19th Via AOP Records


Israeli gothic doom metal band TOMORROW’S RAIN returns with the release of their 3rd single, “Muaka,” which features a guest vocal performance from MAYHEM vocalist Attila Csihar. The song is found on the band’s highly anticipated sophomore album, Ovdan, that’s out April 19th from AOP Records.

Commenting on the song, vocalist Yishai Sweartz says: 

Muaka means Distress, i think it’s one of our darkest songs ever, almost black metal in some parts, being a part of the underground scene in the early 90’s i was in touch with Mayhem (Oystein) via letters i kept all these years and fell in love with the sound of early Darkthrone/Mayhem and the Tormentor album “Anno Domini”, i think some parts in Muaka are inspired by them, i knew Attila pretty well from the time we spent in Tel Aviv so i asked him to do vocals with me, hear his voice in this songs sends a shiver down my spine, it’s exactly the vibe i was looking for.
