Behind The Tracks: Spirit Adrift - I Shall Return (Single) (2023)

A classic metal anthem. This song revives the spirit of 1980s hard rock stadium dominance with a jolt of modern relevance. Catchy and uplifting on the surface, the deeper themes explore what happens to us upon physical death. At the intersection of heavy metal and metaphysical, the lyrics describe how we never truly die, and that the universe recycles our matter and energy in an infinite cycle. On a long enough timeline, maybe we do return.
