Vio handles vocals and lyrics. Flesh handles composition and production. “Call Me,” the album’s eighth track, first appeared as a standalone single on 4 September 2026. “Your Blood,” track five, was released as a single in August 2026, ahead of the full album.
In its own album notes, the band describes “Dark Bellow” as a dive into “instinct, desire, fear, betrayal, and rebirth,” moving through the “suffocating ghosts of hidden emotions” before closing on what the notes call “the velvet nostalgia of another life.”

darkTunes Music Group signed the band and released its debut album, “Nostalgia,” digitally on 9 May 2025. Young And Cold Records handled the vinyl edition, and Vioflesh issued its own CD and cassette pressings. The 14-track album included “Always,” “Spring Nostalgia,” “So Empty” and “Inside.” Side-Line reviewed “Nostalgia” on release, rating it 8 out of 10.

The band played US dates this October, including Seattle on 17 October, Portland on 21 October and San Francisco on 22 October. Ticketing listings also show European dates later in the year, including Marseille on 31 October and Rüsselsheim on 17 November, matching the band’s own note that it is “preparing to return to Europe” before the end of 2026.
