Los Angeles (USA)-based cinematic metal/rock outfit Edge Of Paradise is preparing to unleash their epic sixth studio album, Prophecy, tomorrow (7 March) via Napalm Records. Today, the band unveils "Give It To Me (Mind Assassin)", their ferocious fourth single featuring Ben V. of industrial goth outfit Ludovico Technique.
"Give It To Me (Mind Assassin)" opens with some of the record's most menacing riffage, pummeling listeners with slamming chugs as siren synths blare in the distance, communicating something awry. Always one to inspire discussion with her lyrics, enigmatic frontwoman Margarita Monet explores the possibility of human thought fusing with machine learning and whether the benefits of such a biomechanical union are even worth it.
Monet says about "Give It To Me (Mind Assassin)": "This high-energy, explosive track embodies the ultimate showdown between the human mind and artificial intelligence. An intense battle for the soul, where the fight against digital manipulation becomes a quest for true connection and self-discovery amid the chaos of an increasingly controlled existence. We're heading towards a world where we could intertwine with artificial intelligence, redefine reality and possibly unlock limitless potential for ourselves—but what would be the price to pay?"
