Starks Daemon, one of Africa’s leading figures in the rock/metal scene, has just released his debut EP Unchain along with a gripping video for the track Too Deep. The EP, available online since March 3, 2024, quickly topped the African Metal charts, holding the number one spot for four weeks.
The EP’s inspiration comes from the profound events surrounding the pandemic, highlighting humanity’s vulnerabilities, and questioning the status quo. Starks explains, “The album encourages listeners to unchain their minds, question authority, and search for their own truths beyond institutional narratives.”
His lyrics challenge societal norms, touching on themes from fear and manipulation to genetically modified food concerns.
