Canadian progressive sci-fi metal innovators, Voivod, will release their new studio album, Synchro Anarchy, worldwide on February 11 via Century Media Records.

The band's new single "Paranormalium", featuring artwork by Michel “Away” Langevin, is available now on streaming/download platforms. A lyric video, created by Cloud Music Typography, can be found below.

Guitarist Daniel “Chewy” Mongrain checked in with the following comment about the song: “'Paranormalium' opens with the very last guitar melody you hear on The Wake’s last song “Sonic Mycelium”, in the fade out of the string quartet. We wanted both entities or dimensions to connect through music as 2 parallel worlds can connect through distorted space-time, black holes, vibrations, spirituality or anything else.

'Paranormalium' is the name Denis “Snake” Bélanger came up with while writing the lyrics, trying to gather all of these concepts in one imaginary particle called “Paranormalium”. Depending on your individual perception or any influential inner or external event, makes oneself see or not see, be part of or not be part of, someone else’s reality OR even being stuck between many different dimensions as it is all connected in some ways through “Paranormalium”.

It’s one of the most complex, twisted and heavy songs on the album with many different landscapes. The melody comes back many times during the song in different forms, as reality can be consisted of the same material taking on different aspects. In the end, are we really living in the reality we think we’re in???”

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 Michel “Away” Langevin.
