rainaaudron InSoc are back and this is a well balanced album. It almost felt at some points a bit more like DBA which is great! Favorite track: Down In Flames.

mpinchak I’m 47, my brothers and I have been fans since the 80’s. I’ve grown with you throughout the decades, still fresh interesting and original electronic music. Definitely not boring.
Funny enough my 9 year old memorized the lyrics from your Synthesizer album. Thank you for sharing your gift.

ziroc You know what ole' Jack Burton would say at a time like this? What the Hell.... Buy This new Album! These guys WERE Information Society before the masses even knew what it meant. Favorite track: Down In Flames.

about

One of electronic music's most influential bands, INFORMATION SOCIETY (or INSOC as they are affectionately known) return with ODDfellows, one of their most diverse and artfully crafted albums since their Twin Cities, MN inception in 1982. Just as groundbreaking as they were in the early beginnings of New Wave and Electropop, INSOC are breaking ground again with this album. The very first complete album to be released with a headphone version rendered in THX Spatial Audio, ODDfellows takes advantage of the same THX Spatial Audio technology used in gaming platforms to provide audio that sounds like it's coming from ‘outside your head.’

“We've always been a technically adventurous band, and I think this is just another example of that,” says founder/producer/synths Paul Robb about how the album simulates the 5.1 environment. “We like to play around the edges of what's possible in recorded music, and so we are excited to provide our music to our fans with deeper immersion and a 360° soundscape experience provided by THX Spatial Audio!” (The album is also available in standard stereo).

Downloading the album from Bandcamp includes both the standard 'traditional stereo' mix as well as the THX Spatial Audio mix.

InSoc's Paul Robb steps out of synthpop and into an ambient modern-classical zone. Pure bliss! Information Society

This album is a great success for the band, as if it were a continuation of the 3 albums released by Tommy Records that catapulted the band. Melodically, it would be the 4th album to follow after "Peace and Love, Inc." The preferred track I chose due to the lyric and keyboard melodies. For the smoothness that the music brings along with keyboard attacks. The sound of birds (maybe crows) is interesting. The song maintains the band's DNA. stefanopires

On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
