Voi Vod – Synchro Anarchy
Century Media Records
2,0/10,0
Brief:
Very few bands survive for four decades. Even fewer are those that continue to reach new creative heights, long after legendary status has been achieved. Voïvod were never like other bands: even as the thrash metal scene exploded in the early ‘80s, the Jonquière, Québec crew stood apart, both as unique visionaries and as proud subverters of the metallic norm. From early prog-thrash classics like Killing Technology and Dimension Hatröss through to the psychedelic explorations of The Outer Limits, Voïvod have been standard bearers for individuality and creative freedom for nearly 40 years.
Confined to their quarters for those long months of lockdown, they release 15th studio album Synchro Anarchy.

Comments:
Voi Vod unfortunately does not make the mesmerizing albums of yore. But for the yet-to-be-converted, a selective, smaller dose might be advisable.
