Melbourne-based metal outfit Gravemind have shared their new single, F.E.A.R. featuring Jamie Hails of Polaris, and announce they will release their long-awaited new album,’Introsphere’ on Friday August 2 via Greyscale Records.
The heavy-hitting new single powers through violent impacts and charged-up vocal deliveries from both vocalist Bailey Schembri and Polaris’ Jamie Hails. F.E.A.R. explores themes of personal and societal decay, corruption and fear. “We use routine and vices to distract us from the fear of facing our inner demons but ultimately they will reveal themselves.” says the band. “Society’s progression has been tainted by negativity and the hardships that come with existence. Our leaders have failed us and we must face the destructive powers of fear on our own before it leads to our downfall.”
Gravemind‘s latest track accompanies the announcement of the bands new album ‘Introsphere’, which gives credit to Scottie Simpson (Alpha Wolf, Polaris) on production and Jeff Dunne (Make Them Suffer, Knocked Loose) for the mix and master.
‘Introsphere’ offers cathartic release in a world suffocating under the weight of despair, and acts as a beacon of hope in the darkness. The album urges listeners to look within and to open their eyes to the world inside, asking the questions: Can you find the balance between right and wrong? Love and hate? Real or make believe?
‘Introsphere’ is Gravemind‘s sophomore album release, following 2019’s critically acclaimed debut album ‘Conduit’, which left many fans and critics eagerly awaiting the follow up, which is now set to land in a matter of months.
Forming in 2015, Gravemind made a fierce impression early on with their unique hybrid blend of death metal and metalcore. Their music has remained characterised by masterful instrumental work, melancholic soundscapes, powerful vocals, word class production and clever selective use of electronic elements – complementing long-running themes of technology and dystopia.
