Nighdrator’s Epic and Stirring Heavy Shoegaze Song “Frigid” Embodies the Storm of Contrasting Personality Types

Just in time for the cold to begin setting in with some bite and force is Nighdrator’s single “Frigid.” It’s sets a steady pace with the flooding distortion on the guitar wailing and floating like a bleak, icy, windswept landscape accented by the percussion and low end, the bass droning like mysterious and menacing rumblings in the distance. All while the vocals keep a sense of warmth and feeling in a song that seems to be about someone who is incapable of emotionally giving in a regular, human way even when you extend yourself to them whether that is the product of trauma or social conditioning the epic dynamics of the song embody an intensity of emotion when contrasting personality types come together. Fans of the more ethereal end of doom metal or the heavier end of shoegaze will appreciate the hybrid of styles Nighdrator brings to this song and its output thus far.
