Two years after the release of 'Depressionland', a powerful full - length debut that combined elements of blackened metal, djent, and panoramic post - rock ambience, Berlin - based heavy collective BIPOLAR ARCHITECTURE is set to launch 'Metaphysicize'. This is the next brutal step in their groundbreaking, genre - defying sound.
Bipolar Architecture emerged in 2020 from the remains of the death metal group Heretic Soul. Retaining the nihilistic fury of their past, they added the forward - thinking aggression of djent and hardcore, along with the atmospheric energy of post - rock and shoegaze. Their first EP, 'The Tragic Protagonist', quickly caught the attention of music lovers.
This international four - piece, from Istanbul and Berlin, uses their years of experience in heavy music to break the boundaries of contemporary metal. By blending classic death - metal aggression with advanced production techniques, they've created a sound that's both raw and refined.
On 'Depressionland' in 2022, their progressive approach was fully realized. Frontman Sarp Keski's distinctive banshee howl soars over Fatih Kanık's powerful beats, with lead guitarist Marcus Sander and bassist Enes Akovalı adding delay - soaked euphoria. It unifies the band's diverse influences for maximum impact.
If 'Depressionland' distilled Bipolar Architecture's signature sound, 'Metaphysicize' in 2024 is like alchemical gold. It delves deeper into the human condition, using the existential themes of 'Depressionland' as fuel. Tracks like 'Immor(t)al' and 'Dysphoria' show musical maturity, while 'Disillusioned' and 'Alienated' echo the band's blackened metal roots.
Notably, 'Metaphysicize' is the band's first work with lyrics in Keski's native Turkish. The song 'Kaygi' perfectly represents the album's balance of culture, genre, calm, and chaos.
The confidence and scale of 'Metaphysicize' are complex yet empowering. By avoiding genre restrictions, Bipolar Architecture leaves their future full of potential. Life at the edge of extreme is better without limits.
