Body Void announce new album ‘Atrocity Machine’
BODY VOID have announced a new album!
Titled Atrocity Machine, the upcoming album from the American blackened doom metal band is the follow-up to 2021’s Bury Me Beneath This Rotting Earth, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Prosthetic Records.
Speaking about the upcoming album, guitarist/bassist/synths/vocalist Willow Ryan says, “with this album we wanted to embody the absurdity of living in a country where atrocity is so commonplace that it becomes mundane. How compartmentalizing these horrors day to day takes its toll. How the warped machine-like systems birthed out of capitalism and white supremacy that cause these atrocities become attached to you. They fuse themselves to your skin and bones until you live in grotesque comfort and familiarity with the fear and anxiety they create. All the while being forced to ensure their continued existence.
Musically, we decided to incorporate more harsh electronics, taking influence from some of our favorites like WOLF EYE, PHARMAKON, and KILLING JOKE to create this doomed cyberpunk horror soundtrack. We’re also thrilled to have Prosthetic Records behind us once again to help us obtain our vision.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, BODY VOID have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Flesh Market.
Speaking about the new song, Ryan says, “Flesh Market is maybe the most diverse song on the album. It does a great job at summarizing the wider aesthetic and thematic vision of the record, combining sludge, black death doom, and industrial noise. It’s about the way in which corporate capitalism seeks to dehumanize us and reduce us to meat.”
