Norwegian Progressive Metal masters RENDEZVOUS POINT return with their highly anticipated third full-length album, Dream Chaser, out June 21, 2024 via Long Branch Records. Following in the footsteps of their critically acclaimed sophomore album, Universal Chaos, the 5-piece around Leprous drummer Baard Kolstad, keyboardist Nicolay Tangen Svennæs, singer Geirmund Hansen, guitarist Petter Hallaråker and bass player Gunn-Hilde Erstad continues to push boundaries with more concise songwriting and a wider focus on groove, riffs, melodies, and hooks.
Today, in conjunction with this announcement, the band has released a new single, “Oslo Syndrome,” accompanied by a brand new music video – marking the second track released off Dream Chaser – following the single “Don’t Look Up”.
Singer Geirmund Hansen comments on “Oslo Syndrome”:
“The seduction and excitement of the unknown can sometimes overshadow moral standards and everyday life. Insights from traveling with artists and musicians create this description of when something exciting gets out of control.”

Dream Chaser delves deep into the realm of artistic exploration, focusing on the relentless pursuit of perfection.
The band comments:
“Artists often strive a whole lifetime searching for something abstract, a feeling of perfection in what you do or create. Since it’s an abstract and subjective thing, the artists‘ search for perfection often results in a lifetime of always wanting more, better, bigger, and deeper. This leads to chasing something unclear and untouchable, like a dream. It seems real and reachable, but never is.“
With themes ranging from societal disillusionment to personal growth, Dream Chaser offers a compelling glimpse into the human experience. RENDEZVOUS POINT invites listeners to join them on their journey to explore the complexities of modern existence and the depths of emotional turmoil.
