Genghis Tron's fourth album SIGNAL FIRE marks their boldest shift yet: a heavy, unnerving refraction of their past, shaped by an increasingly dystopian present. "Signal Fire envisions a Kojima-esque dystopia of endless proxy warfare," says vocalist and lyricist Tony Wolski (The Armed), "where the deluge of available information has outmoded the human ability to parse it. A world where those amoral, shameless and cunning enough can literally reshape reality at their whim through sheer insistence." Having roared onto the scene in 2004 with a uniquely demented blend of extreme metal, synthesizer textures, and drum-machine madness, GENGHIS TRON are no strangers to making a forceful impression. But Signal Fire marks the first time bandleaders Michael Sochynsky and Hamilton Jordan -joined again by Wolski and Nick Yacyshyn (SUMAC) on drums, plus newcomer Kenny Szymanski (The Armed) on bass-has captured this level of urgency with such visceral precision. "This album is very much rooted in the now," confirms Jordan.
