Eternal Mind and Balens Klerede just released their first full-length project –The Algorithm’s Anomaly is a bold and thought-provoking exploration of human boundaries, delving deep into the complexities of modern existence.
Clocking in at just nine songs, this unique and introspective album fuses electronic glitches and metal elements to create an effect that is impressively futuristic yet deeply immersed in human cognition. The first song of the album titled Si Intro opens up with an announcement of error, setting the perfect stage for the rest of the album and pulling the listeners into the world where technology and human emotions intersect beautifully.
The second song, Mother Board Reboot, follows an intense burst of emotions and aggressive tunes. The song seems to convey a deep emotional struggle, where the mind resets its perception of reality. As the artist tried to explain through his lyrics:
What you convince your subconscious mind of, this matrix then becomes convinced of
The next song Maat 42 is actually named after the Egyptian goddess of balance and order. The song opens up with a serene female voice that pulls you into an entirely different world. The glitching sounds still set the backdrop of the song, but it is now fused with lyrics and melodies that are both chaotic and methodical at the same time.
The next track, Missing Traffic is a mesmerizing paradox. It explores the topic of isolation and the absence of connections in today’s world of digital oversaturation. The whispering tears in the background portray a sad helplessness over the situation of mankind.
Moving ahead into the album, the other few songs follow the same introspective theme, urging you to push the boundaries of your intelligence and ponder over the concepts that are lost in the bustle of modem traffic. The whole album is about the struggle between seeking equilibrium and losing yourself to the disarray of the world.
However, our personal favorite from the album has to be the song Egaf. It’s a standout track that delves into the push and pull of one’s internal and external world. While listening to this track, you can’t help but feel the urgency in the artist’s voice become more pronounced and dissonant.
Her Inner Grievances Prelude is yet another banger that came out of this cosmic collaboration between two musical powerhouses. The emotional depth in this track is just palpable. This song delves into an entirely different soundscape with atmospheric, slow-building tunes. The artist plays with a calming rhythm while asking questions that bring you face-to-face with the reality of today’s world. The artist says:
You see how love, real love doesn’t exist
You see how everybody is some kinda bitch
Do you see it?
The last two songs from the album are Her Inner Ingredients and See Me. The Inner Ingredients has a completely different rhythm with sensual and swaying beats. On the other hand, See Me is a very fast and hyper-beat song with robotic audio and harsh vocals. The song has a very repetitive nature, delving deeper into themes of self-perception and the desire for recognition.
While listening to this song, you can’t help but sway with repetitive lyrics, and electronic beats. All in all, it’s a complete amalgamation of catchy lyrics, jarring tunes, and intense emotions. The two artists end the album with the last track Si Outro. It’s a short one-minute track that sums up the gist of the album. This short outro, like the rest of album, also delves into the digitally saturated world and social media appreciation that decides the magnitude of someone’s artistic expression.
In the end, we have only one thing to say about this unique masterpiece: it’s disorienting but extremely captivating.
Each track is a journey into the psyche, offering both a reflection on the self and an exploration of the forces that shape our modern consciousness.
