Void Chapter teams up with vocalist and producer Robin Adams to release the metalcore cyberpunk-filled single "A Thousand Cries." The track is the fifth song to emerge of a continuing narrative from their futuristic, dystopian world known as The Sprawl. Filled with both ethereal and ominous elements brilliantly interwoven using synths, guitar, and making full use of Robin Adam's emotional range with poignant emotive lyrics. "A Thousand Cries" is a cinematic experience of a nightmare scenario in which two people are pulled apart by forces they don't understand and can't fight against.
"Void Chapter and Robin Adams team up for the absolutely crushing'A Thousand Cries'," states Void Chapter. "Cinematic and dark, yet heavy and ferocious, this song tells the terrifying story of two individuals suddenly being ripped away from each other by mysterious forces. True to the trademark Void Chapter sound, the song features low-tuned and rhythmic guitars, smashing drums and percussion, original sound design in the form of synths and sound effects, and the huge emotional range of Robin Adams, who contributed lyrics and vocals for 'A Thousand Cries.'"
“A Thousand Cries” (feat. Robin Adams) is out now from independent multi-genre label FiXT.
The origins of Void Chapter can be traced back to 2006 during the Take It And Break It remix competition for Celldweller, which served as a catalyst for the members’ individual careers. Brian and Otto met in the remix community and discovered they had an affinity for heavy music, synthesizers, and sound design. They would work on many projects together throughout the years and even land a few major movie trailers and tv placements with their music.
Otto was also very involved in the Propellerhead Reason Community, where he met Adam, who enthusiastically shared similar interests with the other two. It wasn’t long before the three started making music collectively for trailer and production libraries.
Over time, the collective became an outlet to create original artist material, complete with its own universe and lore. This was the beginning of Void Chapter, and the inception of a world made complete with music, sound design, and story-telling. "The Sprawl", written by Adam, tells of a dystopian refuge decimated by corruption and war, and seemingly eternal hardship. "The Uprising", written by Brian and Otto, is the soundtrack to the war itself, and the conflict between nefarious kings and their consequential resistance.
Today, Void Chapter is a powerhouse of three talented producers coming together with the purpose of creating intense, concept-driven, genre-bending music with corresponding world-building and narrative. A new, full-length album is currently being produced by Void Chapter and is slated to be released in late 2022.
