The Complex

“The Complex” digs into self-doubt, shame and the feeling of being fundamentally flawed, as the pressure to hold yourself together turns into another source of inner conflict. Solid groove and riff-driven progressive rock with a laid-back weight, that allows the voice to be front and center, packing many potential ear worms!.

The song captures the struggle between false hope and the feeling that every attempt to escape only leads further downhill. As groove goes, this track leans a bit more towards solid even time signatures, with post-metal ambiances and chords and strong, prog-rock riffs and tuttis. In contrast with the rest of songs of the album, this one doesn’t contain any world music elements. A straightforward prog, hard-rock tune.
