Information
INFECTED RAIN experienced their most successful years yet in 2022 and 2023, commencing with the release of their fifth full-length album, Ecdysis. The album garnered prime media acclaim, hundreds of thousands of streams and views, and debuted in the Top 20 on the US Current Hard Music charts - all accented by worldwide performances at major festivals and with the likes of Butcher Babies, Wednesday 13 and more. On February 9, 2024, the band will climb even higher with their multifaceted sixth album, TIME. Described by the multinational band as an homage to every fleeting second, every heartbeat, and every breath that has led us to this moment, TIME was once again produced, mixed and mastered by Valentin Voluta, and combines the deft talents of returning members Vidick (guitars, cover artist), Eugene Voluta (drums) and famed frontwoman Lena Scissorhands (vocals), plus introduces new member Alice Lane (bass) to the fold. INFECTED RAIN exercise their trademarks with TIME, tastefully accenting the introspective musical journey with effectively-placed progressive, electronic and even nu-metal features amid ethereal passages. First track BECAUSE I LET YOU bursts in with undeniable energy,boasting aggressive lyrics and Lena Scissorhands swift, menacing delivery. Previously released first single DYING LIGHT marches with subterranean heaviness and rhythmic grooves beneath eerie vocals and keys, and even snaps into an EDM passage, showcasing the dynamic delivery of the band in 2024. NEVER TO RETURN flirts with trip-hop elements and far eastern instrumentation before the melodic ode to self-empowerment LIGHTHOUSE crashes in to juxtapose soft verses and intense auditory shifts. Album standout and djent driven VIVARIUM warns of societys fickle freedoms as Lena Scissorhands delivers some of the albums most hair-raising screams amid a haunting, ominous atmosphere, while fast-paced burners like THE ANSWER IS YOU and ENMITY flash between various EDM, synthwave and even drum and bass brushed transits amid bludgeoning rhythms. Intense GAME OF BLAME explores themes of hypocrisy and emotional pain delved out by those we love while boasting one of the albums most searing breakdowns, while tracks like PANDEMONIUM and UNPREDICTABLE detail the uncontrollable energy of the future and past, respectively - boasting lofty, angelic verses with hard-hitting guitars and punching drums. Italian/English-language journey PAURA closes out the album with a path to self-discovery - beckoning the listener to understand that we limit ourselves with our own fears, and must harness the pain to overcome. TIME ends in a state of calm with ambient finisher A SECOND OR A THOUSAND YEARS - drawing the curtains closed on yet another fantastic, experimental expedition by rising stars INFECTED RAIN.
