I have been dying to do this one FOREVER. If you know me, you know I’m a true genre multidisciplinarian. I can appreciate a lot if the vocals are harsh. But how can Iclaim that if we have never had a true spastic tech release?? Where is hyper-noodle? Well it's here! It’s April’s in-hand drop and itsViraemia!
Like, I say it a lot but this might be the perfect WV release. I’m so jealous of anyone who is hearing this for the first time today. Pay attention to the reaction from people you know and people on this post. We are about to have a true watershed moment here. We’re breaking some new ground! Culture culture culture. In an alternate reality, I just do tech and slam releases every month or the rest of time - this is a peak in to my true heart. I love you sweet Viraemia!
You know the drill on this one - art was already SO iconic, I didn’t;t want to do a radical departure. Its so anchored in 2009 like, the high manipulated photo with lots of fuzz and overspray, haha. But! In staying with the theme, given the band, I thought Armaada would be the perfect choice to keep the color palette and bring it in to a more “current tech’ slam” kind of aesthetic. And of course, Kai just went crazy on the layout! Couldn’t help myself - had to go crazy on a big ol logo, haha.
