Montreal metal trio OMBRA will release their debut EP, “Night Terror,” on September 14th, 2026, delivering a visceral, front‑to‑back conceptual experience built on fear, obsession, chemical collapse, and the psychological weight of modern life. The band has now unveiled the EP’s third single, “Blue Dream,” a suffocating descent into chemical escapism and slow‑motion psychological freefall.
The song drags listeners into a world where fleeting highs mutate into permanent hauntings, exploring chemical escapism dissolving into paranoia, dependency blurring into possession, waking nightmares unfolding in abandoned homes, and the overwhelming sensation of losing control in slow motion.
Musically, “Blue Dream” spirals through a suffocating atmosphere, crushing riffs, and psychedelic tension, serving as the perfect midpoint in the EP’s descent from societal panic to full psychological seizure.

OMBRA formed when Giuseppe “G” Criniti and Marco Sisti left their hard‑rock/progressive project NRTH in late 2020 to pursue a heavier, more aggressive direction. Soon after, Marco’s cousin Nico‑Angelo Sisti, a well‑known drummer in the Montreal scene and former member of Hidden Pride, joined the project.
All three members grew up together in Lachine, the same schools, the same neighbourhood, families who immigrated from Italy together. OMBRA wasn’t a calculated formation; it was inevitable. Their sound is loud, energetic, and groovy
Written between 2021 and 2026, OMBRA’s debut EP “Night Terror” reflects the band’s lived experiences and observations of a decade marked by upheaval, media distortion, obsession, war, and emotional collapse. Designed as a continuous front‑to‑back journey, the EP moves from the societal panic, media manipulation, and government control explored in “Hysteria,”through the obsessive pursuit of beauty and identity fracturing in “Stitches,” into the chemical escapism, paranoia, possession, and psychological collapse at the core of “Blue Dream.” The descent reaches its peak in the title track “Night Terror,” where Murphy’s Law is applied directly to the psyche, and total loss of control becomes inevitable, before resolving with “So It Goes,”an instrumental moment of reflection, acceptance, and emotional release. As a whole, “Night Terror” serves as OMBRA’s commentary on the turmoil of the last decade, encouraging listeners to think freely, explore their own minds, and express themselves without compromise.
Recommended for fans of Power Trip, High On Fire, Motörhead, Mastodon, Testament, and Rammstein, “Night Terror” will be available on all digital platforms on September 14, 2026, at https://too.fm/eab92od.
