THISQUIETARMY X AWAY is the collaborative sci-fi drone metal project by guitarist Eric Quach (Thisquietarmy) and drummer Michel "Away" Langevin of Voïvod. The unlikely duo crossed paths in their hometown of Montreal, when they both performed with their respective solo projects at the Drone Activity In Progress event curated by Red Bull Music Academy in 2016 and as part of the Suoni Per Il Popolo festival in 2018. Following an impromptu live collaboration during the latter, they planned a recording session out of their busy touring schedule in the winter of 2019, where they spent a full day at Mduse Audio working on several hours of materiel ranging from heavy slowbuilding metal to blissfully dreamy soundscapes. For the next year, Quach worked on the material on his own, recording additional overdubs to further shape up the tracks. In 2020, the duo finalized the mixes of their double album during the pandemic lockdown, aptly titled "The Singularity". For fans of Aidan Baker, Worriedaboutsatan, Nadja, Noveller
