Progressive metallic outfit Mastodon could also be in flux as they attempt to discover a everlasting substitute guitarist whereas engaged on new materials and touring on the similar time, however that doesn’t imply any aspect initiatives are on comparable footing. In reality, long-running aspect mission Arcadea introduced their forthcoming album The Exodus of Gravity and now it options Brann Dailor sliding into the lead vocalist position.
For these that won’t recall, Arcadea is a trippy house opera powered by synth rock. It options Dailor and synth masters Core Atoms and João Nogueira, who every come collectively to supply extremely danceable, groovy tunes that ought to at instances evoke some form of emotional feeling, too.
Earlier at the moment, the mission launched the primary single and accompanying music video off the brand new album titled “Fuzzy Planet”. And although you’d doubtless count on to listen to some stoner metallic based mostly on that title monitor, what you really get is a little bit of a bop.
Talking of the monitor, Atoms says it’s all a couple of very acquainted feeling many people have felt at the very least one time in our lives.
“It’s about that first fuzzy feeling you get while you fall in love. Our lead character is recognizing that the spore has gotten in them they usually’re beginning to change. They’re awakening to all the wonder that’s round.”
As for Dailor, who I’ve to say actually matches in his new lead vocalist position, he stated the brand new monitor is supposed to convey a bit of extra happiness and enjoyable to the mission’s already prog-centric type.
“There’s one thing actually hopeful and uplifting about it from a musical aesthetic. The thing was to get a bit of extra dancey and a bit of extra enjoyable. As a lot as we favored how proggy the final Arcadea album was, it jogged my memory of what I already do in Mastodon. We needed to discover the concept of doing one thing completely different. So, I needed to actually think about groove and dance and embracing the digital facet of it.”
