    Project: Regeneration Vol. 2 is the eighth studio album by American industrial metal band Static-X. It features 14 tracks, with some of the final material written and recorded by the late vocalist Wayne Static.[5] It was slated to release on November 3, 2023,[6] but was eventually announced to be pushed back to January 26, 2024, nearly ten years after Static's death.[7][8]

    The album was announced with the first single "Terrible Lie", a cover of the Nine Inch Nails song from Pretty Hate Machine, on February 8, 2023.[3] The second single, "Stay Alive", was released on September 7.[4]

    Background and recording[edit]

    The album features vocal recordings and synthesizer programming[9] by the late frontman Wayne Static that were discovered after he passed away in November 2014 after an accidental drug and alcohol overdose.[10] The material was so voluminous that it was eventually decided to be split up into two albums, with the first album releasing in 2020.[11]

    Producer Edsel Dope has stated about Vol. 2 that it was "more challenging" to put together, as the song fragments they had that were more cohesive and more developed ended up on Vol. 1.[12]

    Critical reception[edit]

    AllMusic[1]

    Metal Injection8/10[14]
    Metal Hammer[15]

    Like the first volume, the album garnered positive reviews: Dom Lawson of Blabbermouth.net gave the album 8/10, saying it "is satisfyingly heavy, aggressive and dark, but it's also celebratory, slightly unhinged and vastly more entertaining than anyone could have anticipated".[13] David Pope for Metal Injection wrote, "Project Regeneration Vol. 2 reminded me why I fell in love with this band to begin with."[14] Stephen Hill writing for Metal Hammer said that the album is "perfectly serviceable, and often very enjoyable" and "this line-up continues to prove its worth", but admitted to having "minor quibbles" and that the album "start[s] to drag a bit".[15]
