Blaqk Audio - Material (2016)

'Material' is the brand new album from Blaqk Audio, the electronic alter ego of Davey Havok and Jade Puget (from multi-platinum rock band AFI). Produced and recorded by Puget, 'Material' is Blaqk Audio's third release following 2012's 'Bright Black Heaven' and 2007's 'Cexcells'. "I'm so very excited to offer Material to the world," says Havok. "My anticipation for each BA release heightens as we grow. For me, lyrically, Material is darker than our records of the past. Being huge music fans and fundamentally driven by music in a creative sense, BA is a wonderful outlet for our long-standing love of electronic music," says Havok. "Were it not for BA, I'd still be writing this type of music, even if it never saw the light of day". About first track 'Anointed,' Havok says, "'Anointed highlights themes of misplaced hopes of salvation, redemption and rebirth that carry through the record. 'Material' is the blank canvas, the fundamental substance, the base of what we create."
