GODSTICKS - VOiD - LP - 'Pearl Sunrise' Coloured Vinyl [MAR 27]

LP - Limited Standard Edition 'Pearl Sunrise' Coloured Vinyl. 

UK proggers Godsticks return with the long-awaited new studio album 'VOiD' available as CD digipack edition with 12-page printed booklet & 'Pearl Sunrise' colour vinyl LP. 

'VOiD' is Godsticks' darkest, heaviest & most uncompromising album to date. Both lyrically & musically, 'VOiD' reflects a disillusionment with a world increasingly defined by division, ideological rigidity & the loss of nuance. The album documents a conscious withdrawal from the noise - a retreat into a personal void.

"Metal as well as Rock, from the head as well from the heart" - Classic Rock DE

Much of 'VOiD' is driven by frustration with the binary nature of modern discourse, where context & intent are routinely discarded in favour of winning arguments. The record rejects that environment entirely, choosing introspection over confrontation & exploring Darran Charles' (lyricist & vocals) balancing of misanthropy with optimism & isolation with connection.

"Their blend of indie-rock & alternative metal has emotion & depth" - Buzz Magazine

The writing process for 'VOiD' was exacting & often punishing, with songs repeatedly reworked in pursuit of emotional impact. Long-standing collaborators Tom Price & Gavin Bushell play a vital role throughout, while the introduction of new bassist Francis George - the band's first line-up change in twelve years - brings a subtle but important shift in the overall feel of the rhythm section.
