Simulakra's first full-length

Posted in Records on April 23, 2022

On May 24 Simulakra will release The Infection Spreads, coming via DAZE.

The metallic hardcore band from Delaware shared a new single this week, "Fading Away," which is reflective of the group's riff heavy take. The Infection Spreads is their first LP, following-up a 2019 EP.

Vocalist Dom Pabon says:

The record has an overall theme of sickness and plague. It essentially tells the story of a government telling the mass population that they have things under control when that’s not the case, and it’s only getting worse and worse. These ideas tie into everything surrounding the record, from the art to the emergency broadcast trailer, to the clips of hospitals, biological weapons, and general corruption in the music video.
