Just over two years ago, Voivod released their most recent album, Target Earth. And it’s taken them until now to tour in support of it. They’ll be on tour with Napalm Death, Exhumed, Iron Reagan and Black Crown Initiate on the “Through Space and Grind tour” starting tonight, and to commemorate the tour kickoff, they’ve released a new song. “We Are Connected” will be available on a split 7″ on April 7 with labelmates At the Gates, but you can hear it now. This is the first music with new bassist Dominique Laroche in the band, who replaced Jean-Yves Thériault. The song is a 7 minute plus song that’s pretty damn proggy.
