Norwegian progressive metal band RENDEZVOUS POINT share their new single ‘Digital Waste’ – the third new track taken from the upcoming studio album Universal Chaos which will be released on 24th May 2019.
RENDEZVOUS POINT comment: “This one came about when I (Petter) originally had written a song with the first riff, but when when I introduced it to the band, we started jamming on the riff and it just spun off in another direction. Baard had some really cool ideas and variations that we played around with, and Nicolay suggested the idea that what if we just kept going with one note in the chorus and just kept it boiling. And it turned out pretty cool. We ended up arranging this song all together on band practice. We also felt pretty stoked about having tons of energy and a rawness to it.”
RENDEZVOUS POINT deliver a fierce and hard hitting energy bomb in the realm of progressive metal. With highly educated and skilled musicians, they are able to push the boundaries within the genre, creating a larger than life sounding experience for the listener as well as for themselves. With heavy drums, rumbling bass, raw guitars, large synthesizer sounds and powerful vocals, they explore new areas of the genre, daring to expand upon that which is already there.
After releasing their critically acclaimed debut album Solar Storm in 2015, they shook the progressive metal scene, shocking the audience and reviewers with their tight, solid and heavy live performance.
RENDEZVOUS POINT are now ready with their second studio album, taking their music to an even higher level. Universal Chaos continues the bands playfulness with advanced rhythms and sonic depth.
The band are Geirmund Hansen on vocals, Baard Kolstad on drums (Leprous), Petter Hallaråker on guitar, Nicolay Tangen Svennæs on keyboards (Ihsahn, Bernhoft, Emilie Nicolas) and Gunn-Hilde Erstad on bass.
