Void Of Vision Share Cover of "Psychosocial"

Melbourne metalcore four-piece Void Of Vision have shared a cover of Slipknot's "Psychosocial," with special guest appearances from Marcus Bridge (Northlane), Sean Harmanis (Make Them Suffer) and Ryan Siew (Polaris). Fans can listen here:  https://unfd.lnk.to/psychosocial

The collaboration comes as part of a Metal Hammer compilation CD paired with the magazine's special Slipknot edition last month. The likes of Cursed Earth ("People=Shit"), Hacktivist ("Duality") and Employed To Serve ("Purity") also lend their skills to the CD, resulting in an absolutely pummeling compilation of covers.

Though an appreciation for Slipknot spawned later in his musical journey, Void Of Vision lead vocalist Jack Bergin explains that he immediately became hooked on the unique quality and sheer aggression of the collective. With "Psychosocial" cemented as a personal favourite, it only seemed natural that the band would choose this to sink their teeth into.

On recording the cover, Bergin adds: "When we got the offer from Metal Hammer we were at the final stages of finishing our album 'Hyperdaze' and the lethargy was kicking in - a small refresher in the form of recording this cover definitely helped bring back the passion and energy to the final process of the record. 

"The whole idea for the collaboration stemmed from us wanting to build on what was shaping up to be a normal run of the mill cover, and to catch some attention and have as much fun with it as we could. We also wanted to show the UK/Europe how a group of Australian musicians could tackle such an undoubtedly influential song to each and every one of us.

 "I think we organised it all in literally a day, everyone was that keen to jump in on it that the rest of the story just wrote itself. We get to tour with friend's bands through music all the time, but getting to work with them on the recording aspect of it is a whole new level of satisfying."

Last month, the band announced details of their forthcoming sophomore album Hyperdaze, out September 13th, 2019 via UNFD.  Hyperdaze is available to pre-save here.

Following the release of Hyperdaze, the band will tour throughout Australia in support of Northlane, as well as take to Heaven And Hell Festival alongside the likes of The Amity Affliction, Crossfaith, Underoath, Make Them Suffer and Trophy Eyes. For a full list of tour dates, please see below.
