“’The Seed of Singularity’ talks about a dystopian future where our society reaches the technological singularity–a point of no return where technological progress becomes uncontrollable and irreversible In such a future, humans cease to be the ‘dominant’ species and have been surpassed, even in fields we thought were specific to humankind, such as art,” explains singer/guitarist Vince Wilquin. “The music video shows a painter that has become a mere tool, as she’s plugged to a machine that guides her every move.”

FRACTAL UNIVERSE started life in 2015 in Nancy, France self-releasing an independent EP ‘Boundaries of Reality’ the same year. Signing to Italy’s Kolony Records, ‘Engram of Decline’ followed two years later with a concept record inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy. The group attracted the attention of Metal Blade Records, who released their second full-length ‘Rhizomes of Insanity’ in 2019, solidifying their reputation as a force in the progressive metal world. ‘Rhizomes…’ explores the fragmented nature of human consciousness, combining philosophical lyricism with technical precision merging heaviness with melody seamlessly. ‘The Impassable Horizon’ (2021) marked a leap forward in songwriting and production and delved into the themes of determinism and free will, drawing inspiration from existentialist though. The album also features saxophone sections, further blending their progressive tendencies with jazz elements. Critics lauded the albums a masterpiece of progressive metal. which garnered critical acclaim for its innovative songwriting and high production quality. Their dynamic live performances, which has seen them tour with Obscura, Evergrey, Black Dahlia Murder, God Dethroned, Thulcandra, and more, further highlights their technical expertise and passion for their craft.
