The Wake

The only predictable thing about Voivod is their unpredictability. Voivod have pushed their sound relentlessly forward, constructing imaginative realms with each musical endeavor. They literally changed the face of thrash metal in the ’80s, forged new prog-metal ground in the ’90s, and have pushed the boundaries of these changing times. In 2017 they were honoured at the Progressive Music Awards with ‘inspiration’ award. In 2018, Voivod’s 14th studio album, The Wake, is upon us steering the Voivod spacecraft through a tangled, tantalizing storyline, woven into the most maze-like, edge-of-your-seat musical experience the band have embarked upon. The Wake is a conceptual and incredibly captivating album that sits confidently next to the many top-tier achievements of their past.
