The USA-based electro-industrial act Our Graves has released its debut full-length, System Overload. The album is a passionate tribute to the electro-industrial, EBM, and aggrotech genres. It seeks to strike a delicate balance: honouring the scene's roots while weaving in new ideas to keep the sound fresh and engaging. With System Overload, Ron Graves has crafted the dark, intense, and undeniably industrial music he wants to see more of in the world.
Lyrically, System Overload draws from a time of grief and reflection following the loss of Graves' father the previous year. Without an overarching concept, the album's themes emerged organically, revolving around the search for meaning amidst a decaying world. Some of System Overload's tracks offer critiques of institutions that seek to control us, others are a glimpse into the personal wars within and some explore the disturbing consequences of societal degeneration.
Our Graves is an electro-industrial band from Oakland, CA, founded in 2024 by producer and musician Ron Graves (Suicide Queen, Noctronyx). Fusing elements of dark electro, industrial, aggrotech, and EBM, the project delivers hard-hitting yet accessible tracks. With its debut album, System Overload, Our Graves rages against the darkness of human existence, unleashing pounding beats, soaring synths, and harsh vocals that compel you to dance and fight. Link
