In This Moment have unveiled the latest single from their upcoming album, Godmode, and it’s a cover of the Björk classic “Army of Me.”
While In This Moment’s version of the song maintains the tempo of the original, the band adds a metal element to the song, with heavy guitars and singer Maria Brink’s background screams complementing her melodic main vocal track.
Björk’s original version appeared on her acclaimed 1995 album Post, making a lasting impact on Brink. “I was a teenager when I first got into Björk,” stated the In This Moment vocalist. “I was mesmerized by her. She has a really inspiring energy to a lot of her stuff, an enlightening feeling. She’s just so innovative and groundbreaking and inspiring and magical.”
Guitarist Chris Howorth added, “Maria played me three different Björk songs to see which I thought would be the best. This was the one.

In This Moment have unveiled “Godmode” — the title track from the Los Angeles alt-metal band’s forthcoming album arriving October 27th.
The song is one of the most diverse musical offerings from Itm to date. Opening with an electronic pulse, the band go full on electro-industrial for the first half of the track, with the chorus taking a more metal-based direction. Maria Brink’s vocals follow suit, shedding a mask of glitchy distortion before cutting clean through the mix.
“The lyrics came from feeling powerful and tribal and entrancing,” Brink commented in a press statement. “The fact that [guitarist] Chris [Howorth] gets me so much that I can literally send him a voicemail and he sends it back to me in music form shows how in tune we are. It’s been a long time since I screamed on an entire verse for a song. I wanted to release a bunch of stuff and it felt visceral.

Maria Brink has every right to seem hardcore since if you look at her life to this date she’s had some rough times in her past and yet she’s managed to move through and past them in order to become the woman she is today. That’s the kind of tough that people don’t talk about all the time unless it’s a way to get it off their chest and make it seem like less than it really is.
