Electronic newcomers OVERRIDER have announced their debut mini-album cyc|er, due for release on 15th May. The record features the talents of members of Cleft, Alpha Male Tea Party, and Giraffes? Giraffes!
In light of the news, the band have released a video for their new single Ansible.
“This is probably our most aggressive track, and one of the more guitar heavy,” explains OVERRIDER‘s guitarist. “There’s a lot going on—it was inspired by the live sound of bands like Massive Attack, where there’s all these layers of noise, percussion and sub bass that combine into this sonic assault.”
“This track is specifically about the period where you are cycling out of extreme depression,” the band add. “It’s about the inertia of recovery and how you need to communicate with others to pull through. It’s dark, but, like a lot of material on the record, it’s also defiant. Oh, and on a lighter note, we added the glockenspiel intro as a joke reference to 65daysofstatic. Great band.”
