Greek blackened-death metal pioneers NIGHTFALL release a striking new video for “The Traders of Anathema,” one of the most commanding moments from their acclaimed, recently-released album Children of Eve. The track stands as a climactic hymn to Judas Iscariot; a figure reimagined by Nightfall as the ultimate rebel and tragic betrayer—its blazing riffs and towering chorus built for the stage.

The video arrives as the band prepare to embark on their upcoming European tour, performing alongside Possessed, Terrorizer, Massacre, and Ater. This marks Nightfall’s long-awaited return to continental stages, highlighted by a special appearance at Eindhoven Metal Meeting.

Watch the video for The Traders of Anathema here:

Produced by Efthimis Karadimas and Fotis Benardo at Devasoundz Studios in Athens, and mixed & mastered by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Amaranthe, The Black Dahlia Murder), the song exemplifies Children of Eve’s monumental production and conceptual depth: a record that confronts faith, guilt, and rebellion through grand choruses and gothic fury.

Beyond its lyrical ferocity, the video serves as a rallying point for the band’s long-awaited live resurgence. After a lengthy period of introspection and recovery — during which Efthimis openly addressed his struggles with depression and launched the Metal Music Against Depression (MMaD) initiative with the European Alliance Against Depression, Nightfall are ready to reclaim the stage with a message of resilience and defiance.

Efthimis Karadimas comments:

“Hello people of darkness. The time has come for us to hit the road across Europe. After a very long introverted period where we kept the band away from touring activity, we finally set to rise again. From the ashes of depression, the battles with inner demons and all those endless nights in despair, we managed to grow up stronger and motivated. This is by far the best line-up, the loudest and the most precise. I can’t wait to sing about pain and darkness in front of you. Embrace darkness, you children of Eve.”

Children of Eve is out now via Season of Mist.

For more than 30 years, Nightfall have stood as a shining pillar for Greek metal. Like darkness after sunset, the deadly Athenians rose through the underground alongside their current and former label mates Rotting Christ and Septicflesh. The band’s monumental eleventh album is solidified by the most electrifying hooks and thunderous production in their pantheon-level discography. But while the latest single from Children of Eve scrapes across the sky with a stadium-shaking chorus, “The Cannibal” digs deeper into the powerful message that has always served as Nightfall’s rallying cry.”Our new single speaks to an insatiable fear that’s been fueled by eons of catechism”, says Nightfall’s half-masked leader Efthimis Karadimas. “I hate the cannibal that lurks inside us, eating us alive from within”.
