Background information about 'Fearless in Love'

The intrepid Australians of Voyager have done it again. With Fearless in Love, the Perth-based prog mavericks deliver their most electrifying, genre-defying statement to date – a record that gleefully smashes the boundaries between 80s synthpop and modern progressive metal into a million glittering pieces.

From the very first synth-soaked bars of The Best Intentions, it's clear this isn't your typical prog record. Voyager have always had a knack for melody that borders on the absurdly catchy, but here they've refined it into something truly special. Dreamer, their Eurovision 2022 smash, fits seamlessly into the tracklist as a triumphant centerpiece, while Prince of Fire hits with a heavy, pulsating groove that'll rattle your speakers. The guest appearance from Sean Harmanis of Make Them Suffer on Ultraviolet adds an extra layer of intensity, but it's the band's own chemistry that makes this album soar.

This is music that refuses to take itself too seriously while still delivering jaw-dropping technical prowess. Submarine bounces along with an upbeat swagger, Twisted twists and turns through time signatures like a rollercoaster, and the closing title track Gren (Fearless in Love) is an emotional payoff that sticks with you long after the needle lifts. Artwork by Ashley Doodkorte completes the package. This is next-level prog metal mastery that shatters all archetypes and expectations.

VOLA, Leprous, Chon, Polyphia, Animals As Leaders
