Lausanne’s industrial metallers NIGHTSHADE have released a new video for the song “Inside Of You,” taken from the band’s EP “WIRED (2025 Remaster)” released on March 5th. The video is a particular one, because it includes footage from an exclusive show played at the Television Suisse Romande studios in 2003.

“WIRED” was originally released on CD in 2003 and distributed by the French label Adipocère. Recorded on a 16-track tape machine, with no editing or production artifacts, WIRED offers a distinctive vintage analog sound stamped with a bombastic drum machine. At the time, the release led to comparisons with their main influences, swiss electro-metal fellows Samael or Kovenant. In “WIRED (2025 Remaster),” the drum machine has been entirely reprogrammed using 25 years old original equipment and reintegrated in the music with the help of AI.

Blending prominent synthesizers, heavy guitars and originally drum machines, NIGHTSHADE adventurous eclecticism has been standing out in the metal scene for over 25 years. Chief songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Thomas Wacinski, vocalist Dave Genillard and bass player Al, three outsider 90’s teenagers with an affinity for heavy music and a rebellious need to craft a different sonic art, founded NIGHTSHADE in 1998. Emerging from the burgeoning 90’s Swiss black metal scene, the group forged their own electronic-industrial dark metal style with extravagant synths, imagery, and lyrics. While vocals appealed to extreme metal fans, the songs also had an undeniable sense of rhythm and melody that stood apart from most metal acts of the time and infused a combination of curiosity, talent and musical freedom.
In 2021, “Sounds of Dark Matter,” their latest LP to date, refreshed the band’s unique aesthetics, progressive compositions with uncanny energy, as if the original band had never wavered in its sound and vision. This revival was made possible sonically thanks to Sebastian Has, known for his work on the late Behemoth albums, who masterfully combined the band’s heavy guitars with complex, multi-layered synth orchestrations.
Recorded and mixed by Jean-Michel Cherix at CEM Studios, Monthey (Switzerland). Mastered by Patrick Abby at Soundlake Studios, Lausanne, (Switzerland). 2025 Remaster by Sunboat Records, Greece. Band Picture by Scolis Zefra. Design by Thomas W. Original band logo revisited by Alpen Grob.
