Norway’s progressive sludge masters OCTOHAWK have revealed a second track from their upcoming new album “Determinist“, set for release on June 7th 2024 via Crime Records on Digipak CD, limited Gatefold LP and digitally.
Check out the lyric video for “Decode” here: https://youtu.be/beDEAyvCyvc
OCTOHAWK‘s sophomore album takes the listener out of the prehistoric world from the debut “Animist” and into the current and future era of determinism: humanity has left the world of mysteries, wonders, and chance. In a reality where all is calculated, analyzed, and predetermined, humans thrive on scientific progress, but at what cost? If everything is certain, humans have deprived themselves of the illusion of free will and the wonders of life.
“Determinist” is a synopsis of the deterministic era, from the humble experimental beginnings to the complete coalescence with ever-flowing information. Each of the seven tracks represents the significant stages in this endeavor, from man on the ground to being a part of the eternal stream.
This will hit fans of The Ocean, Mastodon, and Igorr right in the face – with expanded diversity, heavier, and more of the good stuff!
