83/100 across four reviews. Teaming with the Québec Symphony Orchestra, Voivod attempt a risky bet: translating their futuristic dissonances and angular rhythms into an orchestral language. Symphonique succeeds where so many such experiments fail.
The press hails an intelligent reworking, neither gimmick nor betrayal, revealing the hidden harmonic richness of one of metal’s most singular bands. Rating: 8.
