Qual has been described by Post-Punk.com as William’s “meaner, darker, and nastier persona”. The word qual means pain in German. Since Qual’s 2015 debut release Sable, the project has been exploring dark and gloomy soundscapes of minimal synth, old school EBM, industrial electronics recorded on analog equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the successful release of the 2021 LP Tenebris in Lux and the 2022 remix album Re-Animate, Qual is back with Techsick, 3 new tracks and a remix by Sarin released by Fabrika Records.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening track Dancing in Hell is a jarring, but pleasurable departure from previous Qual releases: a lush wall of guitar bordering on metal with William’s familiar vocals expressing survival through any means, a literal dance through hell .\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe minimalist pulse of the title track Techsick will sound more familiar to fans. It explores a fraught relationship with technology ranging from sensuality to violence.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eFuneral Fashion an ode to the death aesthetic, is presented as a classic EBM track on the A side and as a techno remix by Sarin on the B side.
