Ukrainian Metalcore band Space of Variations will be releasing the album Poisoned Art, on February 13, 2026 via Napalm Records. Twice named Ukraine’s best Metal band in their home country’s BUMA Awards, they are also the former tour partners of Jinjer. The single and video for “Halo” are out now.
The band says about “Halo”:
‘Halo’ is an abstract metaphor about the gods and devils within ourselves—and about accepting both. Time is running out. There’s no need to pretend that everyone isn’t both saint and cursed. Every glow hides its dark side.
Space of Variations says about their new album:
Our third full-length album, Poisoned Art, was written during the darkest period of our lives. The war in our country changed everything dramatically, and the full spectrum of emotions we experienced during that time is reflected in this album. It’s angry, melodic, honest, and fatalistic.
