Following the great response and feedback Irving Force's future-thrash 'Violence Suppressor' single received, the Swedish power-synth act is back with his second (and last) single from the forthcoming 'Godmode' LP.
Set in an urban dystopian future where crime overlords rule the streets, 'Overlord' is a story about the rise to power and fall from grace. Leaving his Thrash Metal influences that were definitely put into focus on 'Violence Suppressor' behind, Irving Force has chosen a less extreme route for 'Overlord' which follows a more Cyberpunk aesthetic.
Nightcrawler, Occams Laser and M.A.D.E.S have also joined Irving Force on this new adventure with three remixes and together they prepare for the big final battle.

I don't know what it is, but in DWTD's discography this record really stands out to me. Picking a favourite track is difficult because all of the songs sound incredible to me, but POISON is probably the most fresh and energetic song in my opinion. zWarhead
