KHROMA
EX NIHILO

The end of the world may come in many shapes, be it an all-consuming computer virus, a zombie apocalypse, an approaching tidal wave or an annihilating bass frequency. After the end, from out of nothing comes a new digital world order to which we must adapt. New threats of which to be vigilant. New monsters with which we must learn to co-exist. “Ex Nihilo”, the third album by the Helsinki-based electro-metal outfit Khroma, was conceived out of necessity — a necessity to witness and comprehend the impending new beginning. In our physical reality, nothing is created in a void, nor can anything exist in a vacuum. Dead or alive, everything around us is comprised of the same matter, only rearranged. As we are faced with a new, artificial plane of reality, our beliefs are being challenged — an entire alternate world of ones and zeroes has been born ex nihilo, out of nothing, and shows no signs of entropy or decay.
