NEWS - Norway's ALIEN ORCHESTRA Unveil New Single “The Last Horizons” – First Glimpse Into Upcoming Ep "Under My Pale Skin"

After years of silence, Alien Orchestra, the Oslo-based studio band led by Jan "EpicAlien" Mojdis, returns with a new sense of purpose and creative rebirth. The single "The Last Horizons", taken from the upcoming EP "Under My Pale Skin" due out in December 2025 (release date TBA), marks a powerful comeback for a project that merges heavy metal intensity with cinematic orchestration, crafting an evocative and deeply emotional soundscape.

"The Last Horizons" features Mats Haugen (Circus Maximus) on lead guitar and Simen Sandnes (Evergrey, Temic, Shining) on drums, adding remarkable depth and musicianship to the song's dramatic composition. The track blends soaring melodies, layered orchestrations, and heavy metal drive, embodying Alien Orchestra's trademark fusion of epic atmospheres, melodic metal, and ambient textures.

Founded in 2014, Alien Orchestra has always existed at the intersection between metal and film music, exploring themes of the deep universe, extraterrestrial life, and the mysticism of Nordic nature. The upcoming EP "Under My Pale Skin" was written in the aftermath of Jan's victorious battle against cancer — a struggle that profoundly shaped his outlook and songwriting.

While he composed the main riff for the EP on piano back in 2022, his true creative return took place in 2024 when he was finally able to play guitar again and give life to a new chapter of Alien Orchestra's story.
