German industrial act 2ND FACE delivered their new single "formula Extinction" yesterday.
The song, which can be heard below, is the first single from the act’s forthcoming studio album utOpium. 2ND FACE mastermind/vocalist Vincent Uhlig said this about the new track:
"The lyrics revolve around a society that is tranquilized by social media and streaming platforms. Everybody is cosily wrapped up in their "utOpium" and unable to elude its lethargic effect."
utOpium, which follows 2ND FACE’s 2017 studio album Nemesis, is slated for a May 12 release on Dependent Records. Pre-orders for the 10-track release can be made here. A deluxe edition of the album comes with a bonus CD titled dystOpium, which includes four demos, a director’s cut of “1 of the Others,” and a bonus track titled “egoSpectre.”
