Progressive black metal/rock shapeshifters CODE are streaming their brand new EP “Lost Signal”. The EP is set to be released on January 27th (digital format) and February 22nd (physical format) via Agonia Records. The release consists of six tracks, seen through new eyes. It can be listened below.
The upcoming EP is a meeting of ages and a blurring of lines. In the Summer of 2015, CODE spent some time in a studio in England to experiment with tracks from their back catalogue of four albums. The idea was to re-visit past works from a different angle and “Lost Signal” is the result.
The EP features three songs from their most recent album “Mut” (2015), performed with a strong metallic approach. It also features three further songs, one from each of the first three albums performed in a more subtle and introspective style similar to that seen on the “Mut” album. The result is a release that alternatively emphasises the subtlety and heaviness of the band’s sound and provides a chance to hear these songs in a completely new way.
The songs featured on the EP are:
– “On Blinding Larks”, “Cocoon” and “Affliction” from the “Mut” album.
– “The Rattle of Black Teeth” from the “Resplendent Grotesque” album.
– “The Lazarus Cord” from the “Augur Nox” album.
– “Brass Dogs” from the “Nouveau Gloaming” album.
Produced and mixed by the band themselves, this is the sound of CODE exploring the dichotomy within their music and producing a release of rich power, melody and dynamics.
