Finnish industrial black metal collective AntiHuman Industries have unveiled “Lucid Dream”, the latest advance track from their forthcoming debut album Accelerated Death Impulse, due for international release on 30 April via W.T.C. Productions.
A project forged by some of the most seasoned figures in Finland’s extreme underground, AntiHuman Industries arrive not as newcomers but as a convergence of long‑established creative forces. Corvus, Spellgoth, Syphon, and VnoM — names that resonate with anyone whose pulse runs cold and black — channel decades of experience into a sound that feels both resurrected and re‑engineered.
Accelerated Death Impulse stands out immediately for its approach: industrialized black metal that refuses to sound nostalgic or derivative. Instead, the album pulses with a paradoxical vitality — dead‑eyed yet violently alive, mechanical yet unmistakably rooted in black metal’s sacred profanities.
The tracklist reads like a catalogue of corrupted states of being: “Loop Of Cosmic Horror”, “Error:Human”, “Brain Noise”, “Lucid Dream”, and the title track itself. Each piece burns through textures where organic matter is shredded into circuitry, and cold electronics are weaponized into something feral.
Despite the mechanized shell, the core remains unmistakably black metal — unorthodox, confrontational, and steeped in the genre’s shadowed lineage. There is a sense of return embedded in the project. Spellgoth’s legacy with Trollheims Grott and their cult 2003 release Bloodsoaked And Ill‑Fated, Syphon’s era in …And Oceans, and the shared history of Syphon and VnoM in True Black Dawn all echo through AntiHuman Industries’ sonic architecture. What once existed in the margins of industrial black metal now resurfaces, sharpened and recontextualized for a future that feels both postmodern and primordial.
AntiHuman Industries do not merely revisit the past — they reconfigure it, pointing toward a horizon where black metal’s evolution becomes something cold, luminous, and unsettling. Link
