Interlace - Imago

Interlace is finally back after some technical problems which pushed the release date forward about a half a year. Now they are more aggressive than ever and their music and lyrics seems to be more powerful than ever before. The well-written lyrics are performed by the singer Oscar that have a strong and powerful voice and he is backed up by massive beats with sequences of noisy machineries.

"Master" is the first track out on this new album and has also been released as a single with the same name. This track is one of the strongest I've heard in a long time and I'm totally convinced that it will be a hit at the heavier dance floors for many years. Still you shouldn't just focus on the mention track since there's allot of other great tracks to enjoy. "Sleep on Stones", "Elohim", "Cristalline Hush" and "Track Two" to mention a few.

The astonishing cover is designed by Dace McKean and Teiaiel, with the perfect symbiosis between a spider and a man make the visual and the musical feels very well-produced. The cover makes me think of Front Line Assembly's layout for their "Implode"-album from 1999.

The first time I heard the record and really liked it, and it gets even better every time I hear it. This is something Interlace really should be pleased with.
