Here’s a release that should be in your collection. Following up to their 2022 release “Our Idols Are Filth”, the Australian melodic dark electro act Avarice In Audio (Gerry and Lawrie) disappeared from the radar to immediately start work on the new album “Tear Heaven In Half” out on Alfa Matrix.

The album is out as a download release via the Alfa Matrix Bandcamp page and soon on all other platforms.

The album comes packed with 17 tracks blending several genres into their dark electro approach. To give you an idea, there is the Drum N’ Bass infested “Wicked Die Alone”, the more techno beat driven “You Are The Carbon”, and the hard-rock infested “Who The Monsters Are”.

In a reaction the band says: “This album refuses to be pinned down to just one genre. It’s raw, dark, and aggressive when it wants to be, yet somehow finds space to be punchy, addictive, and ridiculously catchy.”

As an extra the album features several collaborations, including Alaskan IDM act Static Logic, Canadian cyberpunk artist Virtual Terrorist, and Lawrie’s own solo project Studio-X. Read the review of ‘Tear Heaven In Half’.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
