Moldovan metallers, Infected Rain, currently on tour in the US with Wednesday 13, have announced the release of a new album. Time is due out on February 9th, 2024 via Napalm Records. This week, the band also unveiled their latest single and video, “Never To Return”. Check it out below, and find out more about the album.
Pre-order Time here.
Infected Rain says about “Never To Return”:
““Never To Return” is our deep dive into the unstoppable flow of time, reminiscent of the shifting sands in an ancient desert. Like smoke that slips through fingers, moments pass us by, leaving behind traces of memories. In this song, amidst the backdrop of the vast, timeless desert, we transform into ethereal creatures, exploring the mysteries of time. It’s a reflection on life’s journey, with all its fleeting moments, and a reminder that every second counts.”
Following their most successful album to date, 2022’s Ecdysis, Infected Rain climbs even higher with Time. Described by the multinational band as “an homage to every fleeting second, every heartbeat, and every breath that has led us to this moment,” Time was once again produced, mixed and mastered by Valentin Voluta, and introduces new member Alice Lane (bass) to the fold.
Infected Rain exercise their trademarks with Time, tastefully accenting the introspective musical journey with effectively-placed progressive, electronic and even nu-metal features amid ethereal passages.
Infected Rain says about Time:
“Time is not just an album, it’s a journey, a testament to our evolution as Infected Rain. Time isn’t just a measure; it’s an ever-flowing river, a constant reminder of our fleeting moments and enduring legacies. This subject resonates deeply throughout the record, offering to you a chance to reflect on the past, embrace the present, and dream of the future. With Time, we invite you to experience the phenomena of time with us, in all its haunting beauty and raw power.”
