“Hatred Thinly Veils” is a philosophy-fueled examination of the meaning of our existence, or lack-there-of. Lyrically inspired by philosophers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Emil Cioran, Arthur Schopenhauer, Thomas Ligotti, and more, this EP pulls no punches in illuminating the treacheries of life. Ripping metal and post-hardcore riffs infused with brutal screams and shimmering clean vocals revive that old-school, mid-2000’s sound that inspired Thoughts Before Prayers to make music in the first place. A sober analysis of our shared experience in this desolate universe and the reality of our humanity greets the listener from the very first line: “Hatred thinly veils our frailty.”
