Sonic Jesus' just released on August 25th their new single Annoying Foal, the result of deep artistic research and technological experimentation, which has driven the band to new creative horizons.
The track, produced by Tiziano Veronese's new record label Don Rhajin, marks a significant step forward in Sonic Jesus' career, with its fusion of hypnotic sounds and futuristic visions. Annoying Foal is a haunting and introspective piece, with a dark, brooding atmosphere.
The lyrics, written by Marco Baldassari, are cryptic and suggestive, with the repeated phrase Did you heal me Lord? suggesting a search for meaning or salvation in the face of inner turmoil. The industrial-infused sound of the track provides an appropriate backdrop, with gritty electronic tones and driving percussion adding to the sense of urgency and tension. The repeated refrain serves as a kind of mantra, perhaps representing the inner demons that we must all confront in order to find peace and meaning in our lives.
Annoying Foal's video was entirely filmed, edited, and then processed in AI by the Moroccan artist Yousra. The universe they co-created with the machine is dreamlike, strange, and intriguing. A very specific, cinematic vision drawing from dystopian sci-fi.
The band found themselves intrigued by AI’s knack for conjuring visuals — both static and moving — in a manner both whimsical and unexpected. Sonic Jesus senses a genuine synergy between AI’s visuals and their music, enhancing the overall artistic sensation for their audience.
“We wanted to harness this technology to express our artistic message in an entirely new and engaging way - says the band - The use of AI allowed us to create a synergy between our psychedelic sound and a stunning and unprecedented visual universe.”
Annoying Foal anticipates the release of Sonic Jesus' new album Badway, that will be released digital and on red vinyl on 📌 October 09th, along with a one-month-and-a-half-long EU/UK tour.
