2024 was a landmark year in the resurgence of Static-X thanks to the release of Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 (released January 26th) and the successful Machine Killer Tour with friends Sevendust – comprised of 3 legs with multiple sold-out performances. Project Regeneration: Vol 2 was one of Loudwire’s The 51 Best Rock + Metal Albums of 2024 where they declared: “the band in its current form still remains a solid force in driving, industrial tinged music they dub “evil disco.” Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 was always planned as a companion piece to the original Project Regeneration: Vol 1 and the two records combined feature all the remaining material discovered on tape of Wayne Static. The new album was produced by Xer0 and mixed/mastered by long-time collaborator Ulrich Wild. More information on Project Regeneration: Vol. 1 and Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 can be found at: http://www.static-x.com/.
