BLIND EQUATION have announced a new album!

Titled DEATH AWAITS, the upcoming album from the Chicago-based cybergrind band is the follow-up to 2021’s Life Is Pain, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via their new home at Prosthetic Records.

Speaking about the upcoming album, James McHenry from the band says, “DEATH AWAITS is the album I have always been wanting to make for BLIND EQUATION, and I feel like this is the perfect time to do so. This album demonstrates strong influence from black metal, modern hyperpop & cloud rap, eurotrance and a wide variety of genres through the BLIND EQUATION songwriting and production lens. I am excited to release something that progresses the project’s sound to the next step, and opens up a whole new world of what BLIND EQUATION could be.”

On working with Prosthetic Records, McHenry adds, “I am thrilled to be releasing this album through Prosthetic Records and be a part of an amazing roster of bands pushing the boundaries of metal. It is absolutely surreal to be releasing a ‘pop cybergrind’ album on the same label that helped grow my taste as a metalhead growing up. On top of that, they share a similar vision as I do and have been very helpful and supportive of my chaotic ideas for the project along the way. I couldn’t be happier to be a part of such a great team.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming new album; never getting better.
