DELVOID Swarmlife

Popis:

Swarmlife is an album by Delvoid, released in 2022. The album isThe Oslo-based alternative rock band Delvoid has released two albums and an EP since 2011, and now they're back with their third full length album “Swarmlife”. More song based than their previous endevours, “Swarmlife” consists of the best from the last five years of jamming around with songs, and then spending two years pulling them apart and putting them back together. You can expect noisy sound walls with mammoth-sized rock riffs, but also vulnerable ‘shoegazy’ melodies and quiet psychedelic post-rock parts. While their second cd “Serene” (2015) was a leviathan of an album, with layers of synths, strings and dubbed guitars, “Swarmlife” showcases the band's four core members at their best. It's more band and less orchestra, but still everything we've come to expect from Delvoid. The band has composed, produced and recorded the album themselves, before handing the reigns to Magnus Lindberg (Cult Of Luna) to mix and master. Vocalist Alex says: “The lyrics of ‘Swarmlife’ take the form of introspective storytelling. Thematically, the album works with the tension between individualism and collectivism. Attempts are made to trace thoughts and emotions backwards beyond the self to their ideological origins. As the lines between ideology and psychology are blurred, a ruthless, virus-like longing for fellowship is unearthed. This longing, in a sense, explains the anger and melancholy with which the lyrics are imparted.” a rock CD.
