BRUIT ≤ have shared a second look at their forthcoming album ‘The Age Of Ephemerality’, set for release on the 25th of April via Pelagic Records.

As the ethics of major streaming services and social media outlets come to the fore, BRUIT ≤ prepare for the timely release of their colossal new album. A philosophical, poetic and political reflection on our insatiable fascination with technology, a dependence as reverential as it is increasingly alienating and exploitative, ‘The Age Of Ephemerality’ is a seismic collision of old and new, of sounds organic and electric, with the trailblazing four-piece capturing the resultant symphony in all its chaotic, confrontational glory.
ㅤ
Following previous single "Ephemeral", today BRUIT ≤ share the album's soaring second track, "Data", which takes ‘Ephemeral’s instrumental fury and reshapes it; cannibalising the grinding cacophony and spitting out a delirious, DnB-like dirge before this too implodes in a hail of scattered digital artefacts before a blissfully bittersweet piano motif plays us out; a haunting analogue of the track’s synthesised introduction.

The band comment: "Data explores the problem of mass surveillance and globalised manipulation through the digitisation of everything. Driven by an urgent drum & bass beat, the track confronts electronic elements, electric guitar and cello, with a brass ensemble and bicentennial organ, diluting what is organic and what's not. Through this process, we tried to illustrate the confusion we feel every day when faced with fake news, AI generated content or targeted advertising... What's still social about our network? What's still organic about our relationship with the world?"
