COMBUSTION 96 (THREAT SIGNAL, WARBRINGER, Etc.) Streams New Single "Lost In The Dark"

4 days ago 4



Combustion 96 – the band featuring guitarists Niklas Rubensson, Philip Näslund (Bruce Dickinson) and Benjamin Lechuga, Threat Signal vocalist Jon Howard, bassist Chase Bryant (Oni, Warbringer), and drummer Yoyo Bianchi (Teravolt, Sleeping Dog) – is now streaming their new single "Lost In The Dark". Frankly, it's just good to hear Howard out there crushing it behind the mic still. Dude is mega talented.

"To me, 'Lost in the Dark' is a very special song," said Näslund of the single. "Written together with Combustion 96, we really felt like we came across something simple, yet catchy, as soon as we worked out the opening guitar part. Like we've done on our most recent releases, we brought in Jon Howard from Threat Signal to write lyrics and perform the vocals and he really did an amazing job."

Howard added: "When I was writing 'Lost In The Dark', I thought back to a very brutal time in my life. A time when I felt completely defeated, drained and destroyed. I had gone through emotional trauma that really changed me and I wasn't myself anymore… I had lost the sense of who I was and I couldn't figure out how to get out of this destructive and confusing state of mind. It honestly took years to feel like myself again.

"So, the lyrics really don't hide anything, it's all written very directly. It's a struggle with myself and my battle trying to overcome this negative mindset. Giving up is never, ever an option. No matter how hard things get."
