Voivod – Infini (2009)

April 19, 2023

Suffering a similar fate to that of Katorz, Infini falls a bit flat by treading in slightly safer territory than the band’s usual frenetic thrash or prog-metal output. Is Infini bad? Absolutely not – some would have you believe that this era of Voivod needs wiping from the face of the earth, but I am not one of those people.

There is, however, a reason why this period of Voivod languishes as the least favourite for most. Is Infini better than Katorz? My answer would probably vary day-to-day. From a technical stand-point thought I will just quickly say that the record is well produced, with a warm and what feels to be analogue sound (but you never know these days).

Long live Voivod, either way, and RIP Piggy.
