Closing in on 40 eventful years of existence, Canada's progressive sci-fi metal innovators VOIVOD introduce their 15th (!) studio album “Synchro Anarchy”. Following 2018's highly praised and Juno Award winning “The Wake” album and 2020’s stellar “Lost Machine - Live” release, the brand new 9 tracks composing the kaleidoscopic sonic monster that is “Synchro Anarchy” reaffirm VOIVOD as one of the most fervently creative bands on the planet.

VOIVOD drummer Michel “Away” Langevin commented about the track and the video as follows: “On April 21st, 2021 an animated video for the song “Nothingface” popped up online (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uqv9G24YzI). The video was done by Pierre Menetrier on an Amiga computer in 1991, which I thought was beyond cool. The spectacular imagery and visual effects were just perfect for a Voïvod song. After wrapping up the recording and mixing of the “Synchro Anarchy” album, we all agreed on “Planet Eaters” as the first single/video. We thought the song had a vintage “Nothingface”/”Hatröss” vibe, so I immediately contacted Pierre and asked him if he could make a video for the song. Once again, the result is just mind-blowing. You just can’t get more Voïvodian than that!”

TEKE::TEKE is a 7 piece band featuring a Shinobue (traditional Japanese Bamboo flute), a Taisho Koto and a trombone alongside fuzzy guitars and a rhythm section to create a sound reminiscent of 1960’s – 70’s era psychedelic Japanese soundtracks, while remaining undeniably modern and punk. Their debut album entitled "Shirushi" (or ‘signs of great changes to come’) takes you through a vast array of imagery with themes of identity, spirituality, rebirth and the profound exploration of oneself.
TEKE::TEKE was first an homage to legendary Japanese guitarist Takeshi ‘Terry’ Terauchi and has quickly evolved into a band of its own by blending Japanese ‘Eleki’ with elements of modern music such as shoegaze, post-rock and noise. The band is a cocktail of 7 musicians from well known Montreal projects (Pawa Up First, Patrick Watson, Boogat, Gypsy Kumbia Orchestra and Dynamo Cleoptara).
TUNGUSKA MAMMOTH does not come from Siberia, but from Montreal, Canada and since their creation in October 2010, they put out powerful and modern Stoner/Sludge, with a lot of different influences.
After the release of the first EP "First Chapter", which caught a lot of attention through blogs, the band comes up with their first self-title full-length album, financed in part by a successful IndieGoGo
campaign. And now with the second release "Breathless" that have more texture, bold riffs, huge tone, and a professional recording, TUNGUSKA MAMMOTH is ready to shake the Earth.
The physical release for "Breathless". Only 200 cds are pressed. Hand numbered.
