NEONFLY went back to Norway with a bigger stage and brought the fire with them. The British alternative-metal band have released a live performance video for “More Than a Lifetime,” filmed at the May 2026 Karmøygeddon Festival.
After playing the festival’s second stage in 2024, the group returned to the main stage with fire-breathing, dancers and a full theatrical production. The song, originally from 2021’s The Future, Tonight, has become a fan favorite without ever receiving a traditional single release.
Guitarist Frederick Thunder credits the festival’s organizers and audience for creating a supportive environment, and the performance offers a different side of NEONFLY: an orchestral power ballad surrounded by the band’s heavier material. The new video is a tribute to the crowd that embraced it.

UK Alternative Metal act NEONFLY returned to Karmøygeddon Festival in Norway in May 2026, two years after their debut appearance at the festival’s second stage, and this time they were invited to play the main stage following the fantastic response to their previous performance. Bringing their full production, including fire-breathing, fire dancers and plenty of theatrical firepower, the band delivered a show that felt like the perfect opportunity to capture NEONFLY at their best in front of a Norwegian crowd that has really taken them to heart.
The new live video for "More Than a Lifetime", taken from that performance, celebrates that connection while giving a fresh lease of life to a track from their most recent album, "The Future, Tonight". Never released as a single, the song gradually grew on fans as the band began incorporating it into their live set, where its orchestral power-ballad sound provides a welcome change of pace between the heavier, more up-tempo material. Norway has embraced NEONFLY with remarkable warmth, even within the more extreme-metal-oriented environment of Karmøygeddon, and the band felt that releasing this performance was a fitting way to give something back to the fans who have made them feel so welcome.

Guitarist Frederick Thunder comments: "Karmøygeddon has quickly become one of my favourite festivals to play, and that’s down to the people behind it as much as anything else. They’ve built a really loyal community of fans who come back year after year, and there’s a genuinely great atmosphere around the whole event. What I particularly respect is the way they look after the bands. No matter where you are on the bill, you’re treated with respect, properly looked after and fairly paid. That’s something you don’t necessarily find even at much bigger festivals, and I think a lot of others could learn from the way Karmøygeddon does things. We’ve been made to feel incredibly welcome, from our first appearance on the second stage in 2024 to being invited back to the main stage this year. We’re really grateful for their support, and I’m delighted we could capture a bit of that experience with this live video. Long live Karmøygeddon – we’ll always be happy to come back!"
