Canadian progressive sci-fi metal innovators kick off the campaign for their new studio album Synchro Anarchy, scheduled for worldwide release on February 11th, 2022 via Century Media Records.
To celebrate the announcement, the band have released their first single, “Planet Eaters,” off Synchro Anarchy. Check out the music video, directed by Pierre Menetrier, below.
VOIVOD drummer Michel “Away” Langevin commented about the track and the video as follows: “On April 21st, 2021 an animated video for the song ‘Nothingface’ popped up online . The video was done by Pierre Menetrier on an Amiga computer in 1991, which I thought was beyond cool. The spectacular imagery and visual effects were just perfect for a VOIVOD song. After wrapping up the recording and mixing of the Synchro Anarchy album, we all agreed on “Planet Eaters” as the first single/video. We thought the song had a vintage ‘Nothingface’/’Hatröss’ vibe, so I immediately contacted Pierre and asked him if he could make a video for the song. Once again, the result is just mind-blowing. You just can’t get more Voïvodian than that!”
Synchro Anarchy was recorded and mixed by Francis Perron at RadicArt Studio in Québec, Canada and mastered by Maor Appelbaum at Maor Appelbaum Mastering in California, U.S.A and was produced by VOIVOD.
