NITE
NITE is a San Francisco, California blackened heavy metal band formed in 2018 by Van Labrakis, Scott Hoffman, Bryan Coons, and Pat Crawford, fusing first-wave black metal rawness with traditional heavy metal riffing and a gothic undertow. Their debut Darkness Silence Mirror Flame was released in 2020 on Creator-Destructor Records, establishing a sound that draws from Venom, Mercyful Fate, and classic NWOBHM alongside modern black metal atmospherics. Voices of the Kronian Moon and the Decibel-lauded Cult of the Serpent Sun (2025) solidified their standing as one of the more distinctive acts in the contemporary blackened heavy metal revival. The band is signed to Season of Mist.
