Following on from their hugely popular debut single The Betrayed Progressive/Melodic Metalcore quintet Koma are on the cusp of releasing their second single the brilliant Dichotomy lets dissect some of the finer details within this track.
Much like their previous single Koma delivers a high tempo display of intensity intertwined with melodic/progressive intricacies and taut aggressiveness making Dichotomy an interesting listen full of hooks and all the urges for a proper headbanger,everything from the vocals,guitar intricacies,the high tempo drumming,aggressive backing vocals and lyrics exudes an abundance of passion and an element of real life struggle,even the imagery(artwork) used to depict this track and yes it does have a subtle reminder to the iconic image of a protester in Tiaanamen Square back in 1989 in the case of this artwork it's attempting to portray the shackled individual vs state dichotomy and as to whether they can truly be free from a moral or societal point of view.
Dichotomy offers alot of fantastic elements from Koma's brand of Melodic/Progressive Metalcore,combining plenty of groove,melody ,passion and all the nuances to push the band to another level, one thing the band have developed is how to build a track up to a massive crescendo with all the elements mentioned pushed to the fore with concise precision.
The Single will be released on Friday 9th Decemeber and will be available on all releveant streaming platforms,here's a link to Pre-save or Pre-Order the single before it's release: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/koma14/dichotomy in the meantime you'll find the bands social media and steaming platform links below,give them a Follow/Like/Subscribe to keep updated
