Official press release:
Norwegian avant-garde rockers/recent Karisma Records signees, Virus, will release their fourth full-length on June 3rd, 2016. Titled Memento Collider, the mysterious record boasts six tracks of the band’s signature brand of experimentation with cover art by the Trine and Kim Design Studio.
In advance of its release, Decibel Magazine is currently streaming fourth track, “Steamer”, issuing of the gripping psalm: “Virus has been making the weird of the top-40-of-the-year, you-gotta-hear-this variety for fifteen+ years. And before the onset of this particular plague, vocalist/guitarist Czral spread avant-garde infection of the black metal sort with Ved Buens Ende, in addition to numerous others. When we asked him for a quote about this premiere of a track from the band’s upcoming fourth full-length Memento Collider he responded with the following: ‘ [It’s] a tribute to extinct instincts and Chernobyl Wildlife.’… while we aren’t completely sure what that means, it seems fitting.”
