For their most recent album, "III", the band wanted to expand their sound while building an atmosphere with mainly monochords and reiteration. After recording and mixing the album on their own at their studio at BYM Records, they partnered with German electronic maestro ATOM™ to flesh out the album’s synth parts. Most of the sounds he provided were atonal electronic sounds, aiming for concrete frequencies and sampled organic glitches. The Korg synthesizer ATOM™ plays originally belonged to Florian Schneider of KRAFTWERK.

"III" is a four-part minimal sound voyage in which you can hear FÖLLAKZOID’S musical language developing into something more upbeat, obscure, and sharp, yet even simpler in terms of elements. During the past year, the band played more than 80 gigs, including Primavera Sound Festival, ATP Festival in the UK, Musique Volantes in Lyon, and Lollapalooza Chile. The shows for "III", have spread the band’s fog-enshrouded gospel to an even wider audience and the band look forward to getting back on the road in Europe in November.
