Montreal/Stockholm progressive metalers Voidchaser, are dropping their latest EP, Trust, on March 7, and they’re sharing it with us first. The record is their follow-up to the 2024 release Solace and comes ahead of an extensive tour that will be announced soon.
“Trust picks up directly after the events of Solace,” says vocalist and rhythm guitarist Chad Bernatchez. “Our protagonist is drifting across the vast emptiness of space, as the reserve oxygen tanks from the suit keep him alive and scenes from his life pass them by. The first song, ‘Time,’ depicts our protagonist having to say goodbye to someone who he was very close to. The second song, ‘Dogma,’ depicts our protagonist having to make an impossible decision, resulting in leaving behind someone else he was very close to. Finally, the title track depicts our protagonist unapologetically committing his entire life to someone only to have his trust broken and their sense of self be lost in the process.
“We collaborated with musicians from all around the world on this EP, and it’s very cool to have had the opportunity to do that. We have a lot of love for the musicians that accepted to be on it and feel incredibly honored that we made something they wanted to be a part of.
“This EP is very special to us because it marks the end of a chapter for Voidchaser. We are very proud of how far we have come since the band has started, and there is nothing we would have done differently. Everything has led to where we are today, and we have learned a lot from the past two years. We are very grateful for everything that happened and everyone who was with us along the way.”
