NEWS: Old Moon sign with M-Theory Audio!

Founded by Michael Priest (Gone In April, Idolatrous, ex-Boudica) as a vessel for lyrics on themes of depression, grief, loss of self and death, Old Moon hail form the wet grounds and grey skies of the Pacific Northwest. Combining those lyrical themes with melodies entangling Melodic Death and Post Black Metal on last years self titled EP caught the attention of M-Theory Audio label founder Marco Barbieri, a partnership for the group’s forthcoming album planned for spring 2026 confirmed. Alongside that news comes an obligatory first single in “Obsidian”.

Vocalist Michael Priest comments: “We put a lot of time into looking for a respectable label that we could trust to properly take care of our music. Seeing the reputation and consistency of M-Theory the choice was made easy for us. We’re very excited to be joining M-Theory and stand alongside the amazing roster of bands that they already have. We’re looking forward to future releases with the label and other opportunities that this partnership presents.

’Obsidian’ as a title is a metaphor for the music and the lyrics. In a way of something being strong and sharp but also weak and brittle. That’s something that kind of represents a major theme for the music, painting a picture of anger that developed from sadness and vice versa. The EP of course had the sound to match that but choosing to do a video for “Obsidian” I think puts a face to the music in a way that visually describes the band and music in an accurate and honest way.
