David and Stephen Dewaele announce a new Soulwax album, their first in seven years.
All Systems Are Lying is released on October 17th via DEEWEE / Because Music
It is called by the pair “a rock album made without any electric guitars” and was made entirely from modular synths, live drums, tape machines and processed vocals.
It’s a fractured mirror held up to modern society on the brink — where truth is distorted by filters, algorithms and noise.
“We wanted to capture the feeling of a band playing electronic instruments — live, loud and loose” say David & Stephen. “This record is the result of that experiment”
