Sequential Zero has unveiled their new, highly-anticipated full-length release, Zero Sum Game. While musically playing a fond tribute to the darkwave genre, the lyrics on Zero Sum Game cover a wide range of subjects from ancient spells, environmental concerns to interpersonal politics and depression.
Zero Sum Game is a mirror. It shows us the turmoil in the world and at the same time, the struggles within us all. The listener is taken on a journey into the complexities of modern life while riding a soundscape full of dark, nostalgic sounds of a simpler time. Larger themes of environmental destruction and corporate greed are covered, as well as the power of ritual and dark magic.
This collection of works isn’t all doom and gloom, it also suggests we can find value in the darker parts of our psyche, that we have our memories and the ever-present potential for love and treasured relationships.
Listen back to Bleeding Black Hearts Revue to hear Sequential Zero join Kristen Solury for a chat and a special Studio 5 Live session.
