US heavy psych band Voidward to release new album »Occult Symmetry« on February 21st, 2025 through Clearly Records!

Hailing from Durham, North Carolina, the mysterious Voidward embraces all that is heavy, wrangling relentless riffs against swirling rhythms through shimmering psychedelia. High concept/low brow guitar+bass+drum epics with vivid vocal melodies and harmonies.

»Occult Symmetry« is a fully realized composition, divided into two movements: »Light Rider« and »Dark Miracle«. »Light Rider« and »Dark Miracle« are two entities engaged in a timeless orbit throughout existence, forever compelled and eternally repulsed by the same desire: Completion in the presence of one another. »The Void Cycle« is an epic poem describing the culmination of The Void as we know it in the separation of »Light Rider« and »Dark Miracle«. »Occult Symmetry« is the prelude to »The Void Cycle«.

Preceding »Occult Symmetry«, Voidward released »The Plowman« 11th Anniversary Edition including a special Desert Bloom edition!

This version of »The Plowman« is the second installment in the Voidward macro-single series. This is a series of re-inventions on the theme of »The Plowman« from »The Knives« EP, and when complete, 11 editions of »The Plowman« will be available through various formats. This is the 11th Anniversary Edition, made available for a limited time to commemorate the upcoming micro-album »Occult Symmetry«

Listen to the 11th Anniversary Edition of »The Plowman« HERE

»The Plowman« 11th Anniversary Edition is the response to the initial call of The Void. The mysteries of »Occult Symmetry« are ahead. The Plowman knows the way.

The Void is heavy, both as a concept and an entity. Voidward is the only way we can experience that heaviness in our current state of consciousness. Sound is the only medium we have access to that, like The Void, is both physical and metaphysical.
