(Century Media) Veteran Canadian metal band Voivod are pleased to announce the release of their new EP Ultraman on November 4th via Century Media Records.

Michel "Away Langevin" had this to say, "As a kid I often dreamed of finding a Beta Capsule, so I could transform into Ultraman, keep the city from being destroyed by a giant fire spitting monster, and hopefully save Akiko Fuji in the process.

"I'm pretty sure many people had the same dream...we sure did in Voivod, and that's why we decided to cover the main and battle TV themes for this EP.

"The recordings were done during the 'Synchro Anarchy' sessions and Chewy sings the Japanese parts! For the B side, we tracked down the lost encore from the 35th anniversary show, Return To Morgöth - Live 2018. Enjoy!"

Ultraman features a highly original tribute to the "Ultraman" TV series theme as well as previously unreleased bonus live cuts, available both as 12" Vinyl EP or as Digital EP.
