Imonolith is now streaming their new single "The Lesson." The band features Ryan Van Poederooyen (ex-Devin Townsend Project), vocalist Jon Howard (Threat Signal), guitarists Kai Huppunen (Methods of Mayhem, Noise Therapy) and Oswin Wong (Threat Signal) and Conan Freeman (Punchdrunk) on bass. So before even hitting play, you can safely assume this single whips ass (and it does).
“'The Lesson' is the 2nd song Jon Howard and I wrote for the Progressions album. Jon came up with the intro of the song and sent it to me," said Van Poederooyen. "From the first moment I heard the intro, I was inspired and knew this was going to be a progression in song writing for Imonolith. The end result turned out amazing, hence the reason it’s going to be our main single and video release for the album.
"'The Lesson’ is a deep song musically and lyrically. It’s heavy in parts, and entrancing in others. It’s a journey to listen to. The lyrics are about a personal battle with empathy and being overly empathetic to a fault. We’re stoked on how this song turned out and can’t wait for everyone to hear it!"
Imonolith will release their debut album Progressions on May 20. Pre-orders are available here, and you can catch the band on tour at one of the dates below.
