Their new album, \"Verdrängung\", refers to the suppression of one's own privilege, which contributes to the suffering of many. \"The presence of our inner conflict shall trumpet over the mesmerizing melody of our comfort and fear of quarrel,\" the Greek duo declares; \"to identify 'Verdrängung' as such, is a step to be taken in order to be able to fight among others, after fighting against the causes of our own inertia.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\nVOAK's political instances are clear and very current in a society shaken by racial tensions, sexual discriminations and extremisms of all kinds, and their invitation to act undoubtedly shakes consciences. The band pours all this into fast, hypnotic black metal, with punk\/new-wave and avant-garde accents that underline its rebellious, progressive and unconventional nature. \"The oppressed and the ones struggling against the 'Verdrängung' may live in different prisons,\" VOAK conclude, \"but they are the majority... And in unity there is hope.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3401730602\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/i-voidhangerrecords.bandcamp.com\/album\/verdr-ngung\"\u003eVerdrängung by VOAK\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - North America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53023352979753,"sku":"P-52015-","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/9219\/5113\/files\/Voak-Verdrangung-CD-DIGIPAK-52015-1-1669145912.jpg?v=1778031959"}],"url":"https:\/\/shopusa.season-of-mist.com\/collections\/band-music-voak.oembed","provider":"Season of Mist - North America","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
