Swiss instrumental post-rockers hubris. found some solace in the works of Tolkien, wherein elves considers mortality as a plus. Their new single Death grew out of the opening chords that were written by the band's guitarist Jonathan Hohl after his grandfather passed away.
The band have his back all through the raw emotions that found their way into the song, with an ambient coda serving as a send-off. To keep a listener's undivided attention for a little over 8 minutes is no mean feat, but they pass with flying colours. It bodes well for their forthcoming new album White Shores, due for release in September.
