Voivod release new song ‘Paranormalium’

VOIVOD have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Paranormalium, is taken from the Canadian progressive-meets-thrash metal band’s upcoming new album, Synchro Anarchy, which is scheduled to be released in February. The new song’s accompanying lyric video was created by Cloud Music Typography.

Speaking about the new song, guitarist Daniel ‘Chewy’ Mongrain says, “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 two 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?”

Synchro Anarchy is set for release on February 11th via Century Media Records. Pre-orders will be available soon.
