‘The Monster Inside’ is the third pre-release single from Vlad In Tears new album, Hide Inside, due out on 1st August through Metalville Records.
Said to feature “a perfect blend of dark atmospheres, devastating riffs, and profound lyrics”, Hide Inside is set to mark a new era for the band, solidifying their position in contemporary metal.
Hailing from Italy, Vlad In Tears has already a growing international fanbase, thanks to their ability to blend dark metal with gothic, industrial, and alternative rock influences. With a sound that knows no compromises and a visceral image, the band has proven their ability to captivate even the most discerning listeners, remaining true to their artistic vision without ever compromising with current trends.
The new album Hide Inside explores themes of inner darkness, mythology, and the confrontation between the material and spiritual worlds. Each track is a powerful narrative that takes the listener on a psychological journey, suspended between reality and dreams.
Hide Inside is an auditory experience that is rooted deep in dark metal, yet simultaneously challenges the conventions of the genre, with fresh sounds and musical experimentation.
The album was recorded with the utmost care and passion, with the aim of conveying the emotional intensity of each track. The result is said to be “a bold and introspective work that showcases the band’s growth and artistic evolution”.
With ‘Let Me Love You’, the dark rockers’ previous single, they delivered an emotional and passionate song about breaking through walls and giving unconditional love. With heartfelt lyrics and an empathetic melody, ‘Let Me Love You’ begs for a chance to heal someone’s pain and show them what true love feels like.
It’s available digitally, as remains the first pre-album release single, ‘Empty’ that is said to capture the paralysing isolation we all know, you can check out videos for both here.
With haunting vocals, ‘Empty’ takes listeners on an emotional journey through self-doubt and the feeling of belonging nowhere. The repeated “Empty” refrains intensify the sense of being lost, while the band navigates between fragile and intense moments. A track that hits straight to the heart and honestly reflects the darker sides of our existence.
“With Hide Inside we wanted to explore the concept of spirits and invisible forces that influence our daily lives,” said the band’s frontman Christian Miconi. “It’s an album that seeks to go beyond the surface, digging into the darkest corners of the human mind and its deepest desires.”
