Hyde Out’s new album, Moonfactory, is set to solidify its new structure while maintaining the band’s creativity. This album will be released on November 6, 2024, with a colorful mixture of expressive lyrics, complex industrial chunks, and variety. The album is a rich listening experience with 13 tracks recorded in four countries. Let’s have a closer look at the details of each song. “Oblivious”, the album’s first song, is expressive and perfect to deal with as the listener is set up for what is yet to come in the album. Including this song during the last segment of the music means the journey is complete and brings closure to the album.
“Dedicated to the ones who want me dead” adds some aggression; nasty lyrics complement hectic rhythms. We should never forget this song because it is a battle cry against oppression. “Only Words” is beautifully emotional; Hyde Out’s narrative contemplative lyrics are impressive embellishment, which is quintessential for such calm melodies. It’s a song that stays with you and plays in your head even after it’s gone. “Games We Play” showcases some catchy hooks built to a sadistic and playful atmosphere where the sound of the duet pulls outbounds and plays some exciting pop rock for many fans. The song “On Your Way” has a more straightforward construction in a folk manner. In a different mood, “Firefly” illuminates the recording with a nostalgic and very much present breeziness. The longest song, “Powder-Coated Penguin in Undisclosed Location”, has an equally ambiguous title; however, it is a Ballet-Rococo perspective on emotion, identity, and belonging.
“Another Life” and “Bring On” encore soft and delicate themes, but optimism and outstanding vocal harmonies are present in these songs. In contrast, “Cityscape 49” and “Kryptonite” bring strident choruses and potent beats. “Go High” is a surprisingly satisfying conclusion to the album, conveying a positive message about moving forward through adversity, which transitions into the calm, mellow ending – “Oblivious”. Hyde Out has produced outstanding work with Moonfactory, creating an admirable album with its diversity. Each song is a separate story, but they resemble the duo’s evolution in their combination. It sounds suitable for fans of pop-rock, folklore, and other experimental styles. It is an album that captures your attention and stimulates you to interact with it on an emotional level.
