Savage Sound System
The Edinburgh-based international collective, return with their second full-length album, ALL ART IS SHALLOW AND MEANINGLESS, released 23rd October 2026 through Savage Recordings.
Following their debut LP, Like Stink on a Monkey (2011), the new album pushes the Savage Sound System sound into considerably darker territory. Built from synthesizers, drum machines, electric guitar, bass and found sounds, ALL ART IS SHALLOW AND MEANINGLESS creates an unstable, atmospheric landscape somewhere between trip-hop, glitch, lo-fi electronics, experimental hip-hop and post-punk.
The album's subject matter is equally uncompromising. Across its tracks, Savage Sound System explore loss, isolation, disconnection and survival in the digital age; combining fractured beats and strange textures with lyrics and vocals that inhabit the uneasy space between human connection and technological overload.
This is electronic music with a human pulse; beats and machines colliding with live instrumentation, unconventional textures and a cast of international collaborators from Scotland, Ireland and Canada. Featured vocalists include Scottish MCs Werd and Blasfima Sinna, Irish singer P. Duffy, Dark-Electronica vocalist Sacre Noir, and Canadian singer D.Soul the Soulsamurai.
