Redshift, have a world class sound that is on full display on “The Singer”

The Singer’ is a song that, through the album’s conceptual story, explores man-made art becoming outlawed, with A.I generated propaganda taking its place. 

Founded by Jack Camp, Liam Fear and Joshua Boniface, the group started in the wake of melodeath metal band Chronos, but Jack’s virtuosic ability coupled with Liam’s multi-instrumental tom-foolery soon veered off into a more far-reaching sound. 

Discussing the single, Fear says, “Music hasn’t disappeared by accident, it’s been outlawed by design. Human-made songs are deemed psychologically dangerous, capable of provoking independent thought, emotional volatility and social unrest. In their place, A.I generated broadcasts fill the airwaves, engineered to pacify, guide, and influence behaviour. Lyrics are no longer written to express, but to instruct. ‘The Singer’ explores how music became weaponised, turning art into propaganda, and listeners into subjects.”

He adds, “Musically, it was the first song written with Tiago Martins and you can immediately hear the added flair he has brought to a rejuvenated Redshift, as well as keeping the trademarks that the band have displayed on our previous two albums.”
