Polish melodic Death Metallers BETWEEN NOTHING have just released a video for ‘No Heaven Here’ at this location. The song was recorded, mixed and mastered by Tomasz Frąckowiak. The band’s founder and primary songwriter Tomasz Frąckowiak explains: “‘No Heaven Here’ is one of the first BETWEEN NOTHING songs written in a lower tuning, which gave it a much heavier character. At the same time, it contains everything we love about melodic Death Metal – aggressive riffs, speed and memorable guitar melodies.” BETWEEN NOTHING are currently working on their debut full-length album, while preparing for some live shows. www.facebook.com/betweennothing
