Zonal share album track exclusive “Wrecked”

Justin Broadrick and Kevin Martin’s duo serve up a slice of “smacked out dub and heavily tranquillised hiphop”

Justin Broadrick and Kevin Martin are offering a sneak preview of the title track from their forthcoming Zonal album on Relapse Records. Called Wrecked, the album marks a rebirth of the Zonal alias some 19 years after their limited edition release of The Quatermass Project Volume 1. Before Zonal, the duo worked together as Techno Animal.

The title track “Wrecked” is “our slo-mo vision for smacked out dub and heavily tranquillised hip hop”, declare the duo. “A parallel dreamworld where DJ Muggs meets Basic Channel, with Scientist at the controls. Probably our deepest transmission from the other side. Hypnotic, headwrecked doom for sub aquatic frequency explorers. Heavy as f-ck, zoned to the max. Welcome to our world!”

Zonal’s Wrecked is released on 25 October in CD, LP and digital formats. Pre-order now.
