Due to the ongoing war in their homeland of Ukraine, metalcore unit Space Of Variations have made the difficult decision to delay the release of their upcoming album, “IMAGO”, to May 20th, 2022. The album, which was originally due out March 18th, features the already-released singles “vein.mp3” and “SOMEONE ELSE”.
Space Of Variations on the decision to postpone their album:
“As we sit here waiting for things to ‘get better’ here at home, we have come to the sad decision that we must move our new album release date to May 2022. We just cannot focus on our music while war is being waged on the streets of Ukraine… we are praying that this terrible and horrifying situation will be over very soon so we can get back to our normal lives. Just know that we have read your messages and that alone gives us the strength to carry on! Until then – keep on listening and supporting us and other Ukrainian bands, it’s never been more important than it is now!”

Space Of Variations on “IMAGO”:
“The main symbolism of the album is hidden in its title – IMAGO. In entomology, imago is the last stage an insect attains during its metamorphosis. In psychology, it’s one of the fundamental concepts, an unconscious mental image a person has of himself, other objects of reality and his blood ties through the prism of his perception. As an insect breaks through the shell of a chrysalis to free itself from the protective cocoon surrounding it, you, too, through inner transformation can really become the new being, which, in fact, you were always meant to be. Imago = new stage, Imago = maturation. Only in retrospect can one see the imago, which was previously hidden in the shadows. The future is being prepared in the bosom of the past and the present. Imago is the most complete convergence with yourself that can only happen. With this album, Space Of Variations are definitely moving to a new round of self-development as a creative organism”.
