MTVoid, the duo project featuring Tool’s Justin Chancellor and Sweet Noise/Serce vocalist Peter Mohamed are back after nine years with a brand new song, “Scanner Void.” The track was released via Chancellor’s own label, Global Oming, which features Death Grips producer Andy Morin on drums and synths. A new album is expected to arrive later this summer.
Mohamed comments:
“They are scanning your soul. Right now, technology is grabbing and shaping humanity. We sell our souls to this whole system that is devouring their beauty.”
Chancellor adds:
“Peter and I really push each other. My playing is a reaction to what he creates. He’ll hit me with a beat, and I’ll spend days recording to it—almost in stream-of-consciousness. I’ll respond to him, and I’m always excited at what he pulls out from my response. It’s all cause and effect. There is a means to this end though; we’re both trying to write a song we would like to listen to. There’s a genuine momentum to it.”
