NEWS: Spheres escape the Virtual Prison!
French Progressive Metal outfit Spheres have officially broken through the simulation with “Virtual Prison” the first single from their upcoming album “Dyson“. Rather than a cold take on technology, the single explores a deeper error in the system: how genuine human connection and love can trigger cracks in an artificial world. It tells the story of an ordinary person waking up from a digital illusion, realizing that human touch is the only thing a program can never replicate. Mixed and mastered by the Chris Edrich (Devin Townsend, Tesseract, Leprous) and featuring cover art by Julien Grelet, the record will burn our worlds on 16th October via Art Gates Records.
The band comment: “Virtual Prison tells the story of someone trapped inside an artificial reality without even realizing it. At its core, Virtual Prison isn’t really a song about artificial intelligence. It’s a song about human connection becoming the last thing an artificial world can never truly replicate.”
