Canadian sci-fi metal innovators VOIVOD are celebrating 40 eventful years of existence in 2023 and are pleased to announce a special Anniversary studio album entitled Morg\u00f6th Tales<\/em>, to be released on July 21st<\/sup>, 2023 via Century Media Records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once more recorded and mixed by Francis Perron at RadicArt Studio, mastered by Maor Appelbaum and produced by VOIVOD, Morg\u00f6th Tales<\/em> includes fresh studio (re-)recordings by the band\u2019s current line-up of 9 especially selected, not-so-obvious picks from the band\u2019s hyper-classy and extremely diverse back catalogue (between 1984 and 2003) as well as a brand-new song in the album\u2019s title-track, \u201cMorg\u00f6th Tales\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VOIVOD drummer Michel \u201cAway\u201d Langevin commented about\u00a0Morg\u00f6th Tales<\/em>\u00a0as follows: \u201c\u2019Morg\u00f6th Tales\u2019 covers 40 years of space exploration. It was really exciting for us to revisit a more obscure part of the Vo\u00efvod catalogue, from thrash-punk to prog-metal to\u2026? The title track is a new song, which we started writing in the tour bus and hotels during the Opeth European tour in November\/December 2022. It has the vibe of the experimental music we are doing nowadays, with a new twist I think. We also had the great thrill of getting E-Force and Jasonic involved on this album. I hope you\u2019ll dig it, Chewy, Rocky, Snake and I certainly had a blast recording it. All aboard and ready for take off!\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
