Southern California’s Dayseeker - Rory Rodriguez (vocals), Gino Sgambelluri (guitar), Ramone Valerio (bass), and Zac Mayfield (drums) - have officially announced their upcoming album, Creature In the Black Night.
Produced by Daniel Braunstein (Spiritbox, Silent Planet) and mixed by Zakk Cervini (Blink-182, Bring Me The Horizon, Lorna Shore), the record is Dayseeker’s most immersive and deliberately crafted release yet — eerie, cinematic, and pulsing with a dark, sultry emotional undercurrent.
Creature In the Black Night drops October 24 via Spinefarm Records. Available for pre-sale here.
Alongside the announcement, the band has unveiled the video for the title track. The single is a moody, dreamlike anthem that captures everything fans love about Dayseeker - sweeping vocal dynamics, Rodriguez’s unmistakable falsetto, soaring tension that builds to an explosive climax, and gorgeous melodies woven through tectonic-shifting breakdowns.
"'Creature In The Black Night' is the darker part of your conscience overpowering you," reveals Rodriguez about the song. "It's about the rush you're addicted to that you can't ignore."
It follows the release of ‘Pale Moonlight,’ which arrived in late April and already accumulated over 10 million streams.
While not a concept album in the traditional sense, Creature in the Black Night exhibits thematic cohesion, from its shadowy visual identity, Grim Reaper iconography, and ominous atmosphere, to how its songs unfold like chapters. "There’s a horror-inspired vibe that took hold early on," Rodriguez explains. "It wasn't planned. But once it started showing up in the songs, we leaned into it."
Dayseeker will return to the UK in February 2026, performing alongside Motionless in White, across their EU & UK arena tour.
