KNOW, the solo project helmed by Indian-Australian artist Santosh Nanduri, is making a big splash in the metal scene with a powerful new single, Demoncracy. The track is a stark exploration of dystopian themes, channeling aggressive and provocative energy with a raw, authentic sound that cuts through to make an impact.

KNOW’s relentless drive for innovation is palpable in Demoncracy, a track that challenges the usual cliches of the metal scene and goes for a more hard-hitting approach that enables the artist to shine. The song is a testament to KNOW’s distinctive approach to making heavy music that’s not just about the sound, but also about the concept. There’s a lot to unpack in terms meaning here, and KNOW has been able to explore the idea of how the world is quickly drifting into a state of malaise, as over-commodification and greed are shaping people’s mindsets increasingly. The song immediately tackles this topic with an open and hard-hitting lyrical flow. "Equality’s on sale / Comfort is the new margin / Truth has no place / Not even in your heart.” With such upfront lines, it’s easy to see how KNOW isn’t just extreme in terms of sound, but also unwilling to compromise his artistic ideology.

Musically, the song is just as impressive. From relentless down-tuned guitar riffs to fierce drums, every element in the track is indeed a remarkable testament to Santosh’s ability to seamlessly blend ferocity with finesse. What’s interesting about the sound is that you can tell Santosh grew up listening to classic bands, but he also managed to innovate the sound with some modern elements, especially when it comes to the overall aesthetic of the project. Demoncracy could be described as the perfect blend of old-school and modern metal converting into something quite unique. The single not only stands as a declaration of Santosh’s unwavering commitment to the genre but also as a challenge to the boundaries of metal itself. Drawing influence from metal titans such as Opeth, Kreator, Slayer, and Gojira, KNOW delivers an uncompromising, modern metal sound that is both familiar and refreshingly inventive.

Biden Invaded Iraq, What Could Go Wrong?

As part of my punishment for loving truth, I was submitted to local block parties celebrating Biden-Harris. So there was a large crowd, at a corner in front of an opulent house. The whites were out, with their “BID HARRIS” signs, complete with a dozen blonde teenagers. Cars would pass and honk. Music was blaring. I stopped by, and decided to use my isegoria. After all, here was an assembly…
