Contemporary metal quartet Tethra has launched a new career path with the group’s brand new single, “The Hourglass”.
Tethra provides additional details about “The Hourglass”:
“This is a song that is highly representative of Tethra. Sonically, it combines technicality, heaviness, dynamic vocals, and soaring melodies, with a touch of our experimental side. The lyrics at the beginning of the song focus on an individual that has become enraged at a bigoted, close minded individual.
Towards the end of the song, the speaker realizes that in criticizing the other individual, they themselves have become what they hate. The lyrics end with a line inspired by the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. About how the line between good and evil runs in every human heart.
Each of us have the capacity for both good and evil. We must see this dichotomy in ourselves with clarity before casting judgement upon others”.
