Boargazm release new song ‘Omikron’
BOARGAZM have released a new song!
Titled Omikron, it is the latest single to be taken from the South African sci-fi metallers’ upcoming new album Armagammon, which is scheduled to be released in May this year via Mongrel Records.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist Heine Van Der Walt explains, “It’s a fictional chapter in the album of where they get out of their crash-landed ship and see a whole new weird planet full of danger. The guys are trying to survive the perils of the native alien fauna and flora, as well as running and hiding from their aggressors, so they can setup some traps and sabotage their outposts. Think Rambo on Pandora.”

Speaking about the upcoming album, Van Der Walt comments, “We wanted to shift our focus on doing something highly experimental and weird, yet true to our sound. So, lots of freneticism, while still retaining groove, and to see if we can balance that in a coherent method. It was a fun exercise and experience, figuring out how to do all that.
It’s the final chapter in our Aporkalypse trilogy, so it leans heavily on the fiction side of things, how the Pig Whisperers have now amassed an army, traveling through space in their ship called Epsilon, and crash landing on the planet Omikron, which is the planet of execution ruled by the pig-lords, and how they escape death to infiltrate a banquet and assassinate these alien overlords.”
Armagammon is set for release on May 5th via Mongrel Records.
