Voivod announce ‘Post Society’ EP, adds more dates to US tour

Posted by on January 4, 2016

Canadian progressive unit, Voivod, announced a US tour along with Vektor, Black Fast and Eight Bells a few weeks ago and the trek just got a boost to catch your interest as the band will release a new EP titled Post Society set to be unleashed  February 26th, via Century Media Records. Drummer Michel “Away” Langevin checked in to comment on the release as follows:

“More songs from out in the woods! In between tours, we are steadily finding our way through recording the next album at RadicArt studio. Many riffs were composed on the bus but until the North American tour with Vektor in 2016, we will spend most of wintertime in Montreal writing another batch of material. Meanwhile, we hope you will enjoy this EP of good old thrash-prog-punk-metal or whatever people want to call Voïvod nowadays :)”

The Post Society EP, with artwork by Langevin, contains 5 studio tracks, including the previously vinyl-only new VOIVOD songs from the split 7″ EP’s with label-mates At The Gates and Napalm Death, two brand new songs and a Hawkwind cover (“Silver Machine”) total playing time of 30 minutes. Here is the track-listing:
