Description
Neural Dust makes noise out of a wood hut on an old dairy farm on the outskirts of Toowoomba, Australia. Their first album, Human Face Machine, is a “human-made, AI-centric” hybrid mix of industrial metal, electronics, and existential dread.
This album explores the rise of artificial intelligence and its accelerating integration into society, spanning the horrors of both today and tomorrow.
The album’s lead single, the unconventionally linear Rorschach, features the band’s two distinct vocalists entangled as they build up an isolating cyberpunk dystopia, only to, by the end of the track, completely destroy it. Meanwhile, Basilisk is named for Roko’s Basiliskthe thought experiment that brought Grimes and Elon Musk together while LOAB is directly inspired by the well-documented 2022 AI hallucination of the same name.
Tight, sharp, and fresh, Human Face Machine is eight tracks from a new Australian voice in heavy music.
