Canadian progressive sci-fi metal innovators VOIVOD return with a much overdue new live release. Entitled “Lost Machine - Live”, the album was recorded in Québec City during the worldwide touring cycle for the band’s latest studio album “The Wake” and is being released today worldwide via Century Media Records.
A new video for the live-track “Overreaction” is being launched today here: https://youtu.be/TGBp3Yi1UOs
VOIVOD’s drummer Michel “Away” Langevin comments as follows: “And last but not least, ‘Overreaction’, the new single/video from our brand new release ‘Lost Machine - Live’. This old classic from ‘Killing Technology’ has been on the setlist since 1987. It really gets the crowd going, and us too! Once again, splendid video direction by Felipe Belalcazar and thanks to Jaan Silmberg for animating my artwork. Enjoy our new live album!!“
