Hunter Young Hard Music, News

Voices AlbumUK dark avant sound contortionists, VOICES, will release their sophomore full-length, London, in North America next month. Tracked at Hackney Studios, the offering delivers fourteen bastardized tracks of progressive blackened psychedelic melancholia centered on the forgotten and diseased underbelly of England’s capital city. Featuring former members of Akercocke and My Dying Bride, VOICES manifests perfectly imperfect sounds to welcome the end of creation, the extinction of the human, the collapse of music as we once knew…

Comments the band, “VOICES invites listeners to join them walk through the cold streets of South London. London is represented in a manner that few can admit or stomach, and we hope to show the world our negative journey through this urban and hostile landscape.”

Already reaping the hails of European media outlets, Metal Hammer crowns London, “one of the most unique and ambitious metal albums of recent years… from sumptuous beauty through helplessly driven, angular extremity to mind-flaying, id-erupting mania, London is a shattering of the senses, and a psychedelic thrill ride down the rabbit-hole of consciousness.” Ave Noctum calls the creation, “dizzying and jaw dropping,” as it, “maliciously batters away throwing things in a head stewing melee,” while HorrorSexy adds in a perfect 10/10 review, “London is a complex album…Yet, the rewards it delivers are so very worth your time, patience and energy. In a year that has already seen outstanding albums from fellow Brits, Fen and labelmates Winterfylleth, VOICES close out the year with an absolute stunner. London has never been darker and this album will drag you through every dreary, rain-soaked corner of it.

VOICES was formed in London in 2011 as a new experiment from guitarist/vocalist Peter Benjamin, drummer David Gray, and bassist Sam Loynes (all former members of Akercocke) with a mission to create a deep brand of cold and confronting music, part hypnotic yet often disturbing, focusing from an avant-garde take upon black metal, whilst always striving to explore a wide musical spectrum.
