Voivod - 'Planet Eaters' (video)

We all need to spend some time away...
From earth
We all feel it's time to wash away...
That dirt

Everyday
Nasty decay
Every way
Filthy disgrace

Look to your right, new condos on the moon
Orbital resort will be open soon
On your left are upcoming attractions
Artificial parks under construction

Building more building more buildings to build
Build more buildings more again and again...

This is the way
We have been made
There is the sky
To satisfy
Our endless needs
Billions to feed
There's no limit
Want all of it

We're all planet eaters
Are we still hungry?
We're all planet eaters

We're all planet eaters
The more we can get
We never have enough
We deserve the best

We're all planet eaters
We're all planet eaters
We're all planet eaters

Νέο δίσκο θα κυκλοφορήσουν τον επόμενο μήνα οι Voivod υπό τον τίτλο "Synchro Anarchy". Πρόκειται για το 15ο full length album στην καριέρα των Καναδών prosters (χωρίς να συνυπολογίσουμε τα EPs, τα singles και τα live albums), με τον drummer Michel Langevin (aka "Away") να μας το παρουσιάζει κάπως έτσι:

«We are eager to present our latest work, a real collaborative effort. The new album represents countless hours of writing, demoing, recording, mixing and so on. The band and Francis Perron at RadicArt Studio gave their very best to make it happen under unusual circumstances, which led us to call it “Synchro Anarchy”. We feel that the sound and music are 100% Voïvod, and we hope everyone will enjoy it as much as we had fun making it. We certainly can’t wait to play it live!»

Παράλληλα αναφέρθηκε και στο βίντεο του τραγουδιού "Planet Eaters" (το οποίο κυκλοφόρησε και ως single στα μέσα Δεκεμβρίου):

«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!»
