Voida to Release Dekada This Friday; New Song Posted
It was just back in April that I found out about Stoned Jesus guitarist/vocalist Igor Sydorenko‘s side/solo-project Voida and managed to close out a week with Colour Me Darkness (discussed here), which was originally released in 2011. I know, late to the party as ever. Nothing new there. Sydorenko has checked in to send along word that there’s a new Voida release on the way this very Friday in order to take advantage of the Bandcamp no-fee day for September, and it’s been titled Dekada seemingly in honor of just how long it’s been since the first time the project really put together a batch of songs with vocals.
I don’t know about you, but I’m way curious to hear what an 18-minute piece from Sydorenko sounds like. We don’t know yet, but if you’re impatient like me, you’ll find “Drunk on the Blood of Ghosts” below. Voida isn’t Stoned Jesus, so if you’re thinking you’re going to get huge riffs and “I’m the Mountain” or whatever, you’re probably way off the mark, but still, I wonder what he’s doing with that kind of extended space at his disposal. At least it won’t be all that long before we find out. Today’s what, Wednesday? It’s hard to even know anymore sometimes. Like on Wednesdays, apparently. Also Tuesdays. Whatever.
Art and announcement follow:
Voida is a singer-songwriter/art rock one-man-endeavour of Igor Sydorenko (Stoned Jesus). Releasing a full-length album, four EPs and a collection of early drone ambient soundscapes in between 2009 and 2014, the project was shelved so its creator would concentrate more on his main band. Last year, after the long break, Igor as Voida opened for Michael Gira (Swans) in Kyiv, UA and the idea of a career-spanning rarities compilation was born. Named DEKADA, it celebrates ten years since the first song-oriented Voida release and arrives September 4th via voida.bandcamp.com exclusively.
