After joining Metal Blade, Candiria is now releasing their new album, While They Were Sleeping, their first since 2008. The Brooklyn's musical alchemists - long-known for fusing metal, hardcore, jazz, and hip-hop in a unique blend - will release their new album via Metal Blade Records on October 7th. It was recorded at Spaceman Sound in Brooklyn by Tom Tierney and Alex Mead-Fox, and produced by Candiria. Hear the first single "Mereya" now here.







While They Were Sleeping is a concept album conceived by the band's lead vocalist Carley Coma. It tells the tale of a failed musician who rises up against a monarchy in New York City.

To celebrate the release of the much-anticipated album, the band will embark on the NYC Five-Borough "World Tour," playing shows in intimate venues in each of the city's five boroughs during the week of release. Limited edition posters will be made for all of NYC Five-Borough "World Tour" shows. Each poster will be available only at the corresponding show.
