Pre-order:
Bassist Max Portnoy said of the single:
“Probably the most ‘nu-core’ track on the record. It feels very reminiscent of where we came from but still steps into the sonic world of Primeval, with acoustic guitars and live strings at points. The experimentation is sprinkled on every song this album. I also wrote ‘augmented’ at the peak of my slap bass interest, and it made for the most intricate bass track in our discography. So many weird techniques crammed into this one. It’s a bitch to play.”
On the video, Portnoy continues:
“In the studio, we wanted to use Josh’s [Schroeder, producer] VHS camera to film some cool content, and we decided on ‘augmented’, as it was the first song we jammed together as a unit for this session. It was the song that really got us situated and in the right headspace for this record, so it made sense to film the studio video of this track.”
