BINARY ORDER - Foreshadows Humanity's Dystopian Future With New Single And Video; New Album Out in November

British industrial metal/rock act Binary Order returns with a new single, "Slow Blade", the first one from its upcoming album, The Future Belongs To The Mad, scheduled for release independently on 27 November.

Work on The Future Belongs To The Mad took place over nine months, from December 2022 to August 2023, and was written, produced and performed by Benjamin Blank. Containing twelve tracks of industrial metal, IDM and electronic cyberpunk-inspired soundscapes, The Future Belongs To The Mad is a sprawling, epic, multi-genre soundtrack to our oblivion.

Benjamin says: "It's never easy to be honest about these kind of things, but I feel it's important with this release to be so. The Future Belongs To The Mad was written during possibly the most difficult period I've ever had to get through - a period I'm not actually done dealing with - and one from which I now fear I shall never depart.

This album is an expression of my own inability to find meaning or purpose in life. And the utter disdain and emotional distraught that comes from the accumulation of living like that year, after year, after year. With this album I've managed to turn something that is for all intents and purposes destroying me, and created what is without any doubt in my mind, the greatest accomplishment of my life.

I don't know if there is going to be anymore Binary Order after this. Finishing this album felt like an impossibility at one point, and now it's done I feel like I am too. I hope anyone who listens to this can find something of value for within it. If not then I just appreciate having this platform to express myself in this way because it has kept me alive".

Binary Order was formed in 2008 by London-based solo musician Benjamin Blank - as a way to combine his love for multiple genres. Fusing the intensity of alt-metal, the haunting atmosphere of ambient soundscapes and the piercing electronics of IDM, Binary Order is the soundtrack to our descent down into a hell of our own making. As we become ever more disconnected from ourselves and each other each day, we succumb to the unrelenting fear that mankind is too far along to stop these horrors that we have set in motion. This is the sound of Binary Order.
