Influence by body horror, cyberpunk and dark science fiction such as Tetsuo: The Iron Man, Akira and Blade Runner a third album from Electronic infused Black Metal act Omnikoloss in “Quantum Fleshdrive” is slated for a 4th December via Unholy Conspiracy Deathwork arrival. Born of a place where flesh and technology are no longer opposites, where machines move into the body, voices enter the mind, reality becomes unstable and the distinction between human and artificial slowly disappears it has been preceded by “Splitmind“…
The band comment: “Humanity hides from machines beneath ruined cities, believing that concrete, darkness and silence can offer protection. But the deeper the survivors retreat, the more the threat seems to move inward. The bunker becomes both a physical shelter and a shelter for the mind itself.
Reality splits into two unstable layers: the world outside the skull and the world within it. Somewhere between them the border disappears. What begins as a story about hiding from machines ultimately becomes a story about losing the last private space a human being possesses: the certainty that one’s own thoughts still belong to oneself. There is nowhere left to hide. The mind may already have become part of the machine”
