Tetrarch Outline Their New Album ‘The Ugly Side of Me’, Latest Single Streaming Now

Nu metal’s been in a bit of a revival period and while a lot of that can be attributed to legacy bands coming back to prominence for the last few years, another facet of its return is the rise of new nu metal bands picking up the mantle. Case and point is Atlanta-based nu metal outfit Tetrarch, who earlier today announced the impending release of their third album The Ugly Side Of Me.

Set to come out on May 9, the album also got its second single earlier today with the release of “Never Again (Parasite)”, which you can check out below. This track is particularly special because it’s the vocal debut of Jackson Guitars’ first female signature artist, Diamond Rowe. The band spoke about the significance of the track in a press release.

“We are so excited to finally announce the release of our upcoming record, entitled The Ugly Side of Me, as well as our second single, ‘Never Again (Parasite)’. ‘Never Again (Parasite)’ was such a fun song for us to write. It’s very moody and dark but lyrically extremely easy for anyone to relate to. It’s basically about losing trust in so many of the situations and people around you – while at the same time, isolating and losing a sense of self. It also kind of has a vibe of taking back what’s yours and saying ‘this won’t happen to me ever again’. I suppose you can look at it either way. This song shows a very different side of our band especially coming off of our last single ‘Live Not Fantasize’.

“This is also the first time we have featured Diamond on vocals in a capacity other than just background textures and we are super stoked for everyone to hear her voice in this way.”

The Ugly Side Of Me will be released on May 9 via Napalm Records, but you can preorder your copy today.
