Right on schedule, Voivod have delivered their first song from the Quebec metal titans' upcoming album The Wake. It's called "Obsolete Beings," and the track has arrived complete with a new music video.

As you'll witness, the clip is a mix of studio footage and live onstage action, complete with some old-school VHS effects thrown in for good measure.

Michel "Away" Langevin previously promised that the album would be "a futuristic prog thrash metal trek with many twists and turns, and the story involves the usual Voivodian topics: disasters, chaos, conflicts, strange plots and alternate consciousness."

See how that plays out for yourself by watching the clip to "Obsolete Beings" below.

The Wake will arrive on September 21 via Century Media Records. It marks the band's 14th studio album and first since 2013's Target Earth.
