The Voidz have returned with a new single which will feature in the new update for Rockstar Games’ ‘Grand Theft Auto V’.

The single, however, comes through with something which may be more suited to the neon dystopian future of Cyberpunk.

Ironically, the song does sound like it is from another world however this is most definitely a positive.

From the opening guitar line, the track drags you into its dystopian world. The crunching thumping line is greeted with a driving bass line which sounds like something out of an arcade machine, you can just imagine shooting pixellated aliens to it.

Frontman Julian Casablancas’ vocals are buried in distortion and autotune for most of the song however tell the story of a hopeless police chase, setting an overall narrative to the track.

Overall, the track drags you kicking and screaming into its world like an action hero with truly wonderful effects.
