THEFALLS has an experimental and exploratory approach to metal. They have found themselves well suited in the space between hardcore, post-metal and sludge, as one of the relatively few bands within the borders of Norway. Thoughts can quickly drift to such greats as Converge, Ion Dissonance and Between the Buried and Me. Nevertheless, THEFALLS stands firmly in their own domain. With a strong vision and introspective lyrics, the band treads the fine line between chaos and control in an enticing and unsettling way. A symbiosis that comes across especially well in the band’s intense live performances.
Driven by razor-sharp riffs and crushing heaviness, Nature of Collapse delivers an intense and emotionally charged experience from beginning to end. The song explores lust, longing, and regret through the eyes of a man confronting the consequences of a fleeting affair. Throughout the night, his one-night stand transforms from an object of beauty into something withered and disturbing, reflecting his own guilt and self-loathing rather than reality itself. Check it out below.
