| Purchase/Stream: https://link.fixtmusic.com/ManMachine_or_Beast The Plague kicks off February with a bang, releasing a fierce new Alternative Metal single “Man Machine or Beast.” The nature of the track underlines the themes of inner turmoil as The Plague seamlessly weaves elements of Metal, Metalcore, Alternative Metal, and Hard Rock into a tapestry of sound. Thrashing guitars set the fiery tone right from the start as The Plague unleashes a sonic storm weaving provocative lyrics and a brutal vocal performance delivering a thought-provoking backdrop to the track. “This song is about addiction and identity confusion,” explains The Plague. “The song is about how society with severe technology addiction creates unrealistic expectation combined with extreme relational distance.” “Man Machine or Beast” is a sonic manifesto that showcases The Plague’s mastery of diverse genres. This latest single is just the tip of the sonic iceberg for what’s to come later in the year from The Plague. Buckle up, 2024 is going to be wild. The Plague is the brainchild of producer/engineer David Adam Monroe, a pioneer of Future Punk. The Plague’s post-apocalyptic themes portray the struggles of being human, encouraging people to break free of the superficial and to know they are not alone. David has been playing music from an early age, highly encouraged by his parents, he received an electric guitar at age ten and took off emulating his favorite bands at the time; Greenday, Smashing Pumpkins, and other 90’s rock bands. His career took off at age 16 when a promoter got his high school band on the Van’s Warped Tour. As a producer/engineer, David has produced records with many artists including Glen Matlock from the Sex Pistols and multi-platinum engineer Earl Cohen. As a musician, he has toured internationally–including 4 years on Van’s Warped Tour— and has played with bands such as Tony Levin, My Chemical Romance, Story of the Year, NoFx, The Used, Yellow Card, Three Days Grace, and many more. The Plague‘s debut album Hope For the F.U.T.U.R.E. was released independently in 2017. In 2018 The Plague remixed Circle Of Dust’s “Embracing Entropy” (feat. Celldweller), through artist-owned record label FiXT. The Plague eventually signed to FiXT in 2022, and re-released the debut album with remastered tracks, new art as well as bonus tracks throughout the 2023, ahead of a new album slated for release in 2024. “My goal with The Plague was to make futuristic Christian rock, when I was producing bands in Boston, my assistant showed me Celldweller and said, “This guy is dope and reminds me of you!” I chased Celldweller’s blend of synths and guitars, and that exploration process helped me discover my own sound. When I finished the record I emailed James (FiXT Manager) with the spirit of a little brother and said, “Hey James, look! I self-produced a futuristic rock record that I’m releasing on my label! You guys inspired this!” By some wonderful miracle he was excited too!” – The Plague “Man Machine Or Beast” is out now from FiXT.
