Interview: A Modern Force Like No Other - Talking Poisoned Art with Olexksii of Space of Variations

Ukrainian metalcore force Space of Variations returns with ‘Poisoned Art’, out on February 13, 2026, via Napalm Records. Delivering an explosive sound that has tons of appeal, especially if modern metalcore is your jam, Space of Variations return with a punchy, infectious, and evolved record that genre-bends in mostly pleasing fashion. Not everything works, personally, but what does, is memorable, interesting, and fresh sounding. A tough task in the world of metalcore these days, so credit to Space of Variations for creating music that stands out.
