Shores Of Null album release and tour announcement

Overview

Italian melodic death-doom band Shores Of Null announced their fifth full-length album, ‘Homesick’, which is scheduled for release on October 16, 2026, via Dusktone. The band described the record as their most mature work, featuring ten tracks exploring themes of loss and vulnerability.

Following the release of the single ‘Son of the Tide’, the band released a third extract titled ‘Two Mountains’. Frontman Davide Straccione noted that ‘Two Mountains’ is one of the band’s most melodic and personal works, with lyrics inspired by the Legend of Maja, an ancient folk tale from Italy’s Abruzzo region regarding a nymph whose grief transformed her and her son into the Majella mountain and Gran Sasso massif.

On October 1, the band released the title track, ‘Homesick’. Straccione stated the song served as the ‘emotional foundation for the entire project’, exploring themes of memory, belonging, and the nature of home. Alongside the single, the band announced a supporting tour for late 2026 and early 2027. The tour includes dates in cities such as Sofia, Athens, Bucharest, Trezzo sull’Adda, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Erfurt, Malta, and Oslo, with support from artists including Swallow the Sun and Decembre Noir.
