The Voidz hit the stage at the Apollo Theater just weeks after releasing Like All Before You on September 20, marking their first album in six years. Known for blending post-punk grooves with philosophical musings, the album tackles themes ranging from AI ethics to cult mysticism, all wrapped in vocoder-heavy vocals and chaotic synth arrangements.
The Voidz elevated their material, transforming the chaos into a mesmerizing experience, with Julian Casablancas’ vocals cutting through clearer than on the record. Standout moments included the hypnotic “All the Same” and the frenetic “Flexorcist,” drawing the audience into the band’s unpredictable sonic world.

The momentum carried over to a follow-up show at the Knockdown Center, where the Queens venue’s industrial vibe matched the band’s experimental edge. Party Girls Never Die then hosted an afterparty, drawing New York’s underground scene into a vibrant celebration—perfectly in sync with The Voidz’s offbeat spirit.
