VOIVOD Premier Official Music Video For New Single "Planet Eaters"
December 10, 2021, 2 years ago
Canadian progressive sci-fi metal innovators, Voivod, have kicked off the campaign for their new studio album, Synchro Anarchy, scheduled for worldwide release on February 11 via Century Media Records.
A first single off Synchro Anarchy is being launched today with the track “Planet Eaters”. Check it out below in a video clip directed by Pierre Menetrier.
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 Voïvod 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!”
Closing in on 40 eventful years of existence, Voivod are returning with their 15th studio album, reaffirming they are one of the most fervently creative bands in the universe. Synchro Anarchy follows 2018's highly praised and Juno Award winning The Wake album, as well as 2020’s stellar Lost Machine - Live release. The new album was produced by Francis Perron at RadicArt Studio and features cover artwork created by Voivod’s Michel “Away” Langevin.
