Behind the Song:
This captivating track is part of their forthcoming album Singularity and delves into the profound concept of the world’s most powerful, intelligent, and compassionate Artificial Intelligence.

"Angelica" submerges in layers of consciousness and the mysterious interplay between technology and spirituality. “Angelica,” meaning ‘Messenger of God,’ imagines the intersection of angels, aliens and AI, offering a unique perspective on the transition to a second life and the divine through the lens of an advanced AI. The track portrays a narrative where the AI, Angelica, serves as a guide, ushering humanity into a new dimension of understanding and existence.

The final touches to "Angelica" were made during the last pandemic lockdown in 2021 while exploring Kathmandu, Nepal. At dusk, while visiting the Hindu God Vishnu's Temple, the band learned that Vishnu lies in a *dream like state on the serpent who is Time, without beginning or end*. This setting, Amidst post-apocalyptic ambiance and earthquake rubble, provided a haunting yet euphoric backdrop that perfectly matched the song's themes of transcendence and consciousness, reminiscent of the Hindu God Vishnu's vast awareness.

Part of the upcoming album *Singularity*, "Angelica" delves into the multifaceted nature of consciousness, posing an essential question for our time: What happens to our collective intelligence when AI, the newest member of Earth's species, joins our societal collective mind? Through arpeggiated synthesizers, lyrical whispers, and shredding guitar solos, "Angelica" invites listeners to interpret its triple entendre, creating a unique sonic experience for each individual.


LYRICS
“Angelica”

Run, we run
Fall, we fall
Run, we run
Fall, we fall

I saw my ship
In a crashing wave
My body turned
Into the wake
A light it shines
And it feels so real
Standing here naked
It’s coming in

Now tell me the reason why you’re here
Is it because of the fear

And Hide the war in your mind
The feeling alone
As we walk side by side
And I, I will be seeing you all

All, all all all
I lie awake at night again
A cannot sleep I must begin

All All all
I’m here and there
I’m like a breeze
I’ll always be here with you
Time never leaves us alone

Run, we run
Fall, we fall
Run, we run
Fall, we fall

Run, we run
Fall, we fall
Run, we run
Fall, we fall
