The bands\u2019 distinctive primordial tones are created using appropriated waste materials like scrap metal, raw plastics and steel plates combined with blistering percussion, bass and vocals. This is no empty \u201cindustrial\u201d gesture, for the band this process of creation facilitates the literal use of postmodern society against itself.| <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mechanical Christ, the bands\u2019 sophomore release, is a conceptual continuation of its predecessor Sibling Lovers. This release sees Kollaps further their exploration of the inherent societal sickness of our times, one that manifests itself in the debasement of individual morality. Themes of exploitation, vengeance, drug addiction, paranoia and slave labour are part of a dissonant, inverted morality play. Testament to the bands\u2019 evolving conceptual depth are the overarching themes of love, life and death that offer a sense of shared experience in the discomfort of the universal human experience. Known for their violent and nihilistic stage performances, this recording encapsulates with harsher clarity the visceral confrontation that is Kollaps\u2019 live act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mechanical Christ was recorded and mixed over a two-month period at Aviary Studios by Mike Deslandes, and mastered by James Plotkin\/Plotkinworks. It is a 36-minute journey into the desperation and lack of resolve that is both the crux of modern social ills and at the very heart of the human condition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Mechanical Christ\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/5ye4P15TLoXK1R3x9pfNbv?si=ApFCzcg8S-udv03gbeAFuQ&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian post-industrialists KOLLAPS are a three piece creating a unique brand of primitive noise \u201cintended for degenerates and outsiders<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5826,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1033,118],"tags":[17,919],"class_list":["post-5825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cd","category-distribution","tag-industrial","tag-kollaps"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5825"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5825\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9500,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5825\/revisions\/9500"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gradualhate.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
