Eclectic metal outfit DISCONNECTED SOULS immerse themselves in electronic metalcore in their new single “Loveless”. Following the atmospheric fantasy single “Dissonant Whispers” released earlier this year, “Loveless” is a more personal and reflective song that challenges expectations of what ‘love’ is. With each offering the outfit are expanding their musical reach even further – no genre is off limits.
“Sonically, ‘Loveless’ is largely inspired by the heavy, ‘clubby’ electronic metalcore sound of bands like I SEE STARS and VOID OF VISION, and I wanted to capture that vibe for this track. ‘Loveless’ is a very personal song to me. I won’t go into the specifics, and let the lyrics speak for themselves. It may take a long time to realise and recognise some very important parts of your identity, but when you do, things become a lot clearer.” – Patrick (Vocals)
About DISCONNECTED SOULS:
DISCONNECTED SOULS emerged in 2018 out of a desire to incorporate and blend the three great pillars of music, electronic, classical and metal. Following their debut EP Warring Elements, the band have since been releasing a diverse array of singles: “Petrichor” (2021), “Kintsukuroi” (2022) and “Dissonant Whispers” (2023). The quintet based out of Chester, England, strive to create a distinctive sound that draws upon the depths of metal, while playing with tones and textures. Each member brings a diverse range of musical interests to the table and the resulting sound encompasses a wide variety of instrumental and vocal styles. DISCONNECTED SOULS are preparing to unveil their debut album in early 2024.
