The latest single ushers in a new era for the project, introducing the next full length due this September, ‘The Silver Line’.

Canadian progressive metalcore project, ONI, isn’t even a year out from their last album and have already announced their follow-up! The Silver Line is set for release on October 13th via ONI frontman and mastermind Jake Oni’s own label, Ironshore Records. This will be the third effort from ONI and promises to be “the most focused, cohesive and dynamic work” to date.

As with their previous work, ONI has recruited a powerhouse of guests to appear on the album. Today, they have revealed the first of such collaborations with new single “Aura” featuring Howard Jones (Light The Torch, ex-Killswitch Engage) and Josh Gilbert (Spiritbox, ex-As I Lay Dying).

“‘Aura’ is a collaboration between friends,” Jake explains “It’s always great to work with Howard and Josh. It feels like this song was made a lifetime ago, so I’m stoked for everyone to hear it.”

Earlier this year, ONI released two other singles “Silence In A Room Of Lies” (feat. Jared Dines) and “Underneath My Skin” (feat. Kellin Quinn), both of which are featured on The Silver Line.

Produced, mixed, and mastered by the duo of Spiritbox bassist, Josh Gilbert and Joe McQueen (As I Lay Dying, Light The Torch, Bad Wolves), The Silver Line will surely be as dynamic of an offering as we have come to expect from ONI, while exploring extensive new territory.

“This album is different completely from anything I’ve done before,” Jake adds “It’s the new direction for ONI sonically, with Josh Gilbert and me at the helm writing and Joe McQueen mixing and getting the best vocal takes from me. It’s banger after banger, from heavy tracks like ‘Cyanide’ through to melodic, uplifting songs like ‘Aura’, this album will have something for everyone to enjoy!”
