Abstract
The electrifying debut single, "What Lies Beneath," by Plague of Angels takes listeners on an unforgettable journey through unique dynamics and textures fused with juggernaut riffs and grooves. With choral verse vocals sung in Latin transitioning into soaring, emotive chorus melodies, and a stunningly constructed guitar solo, ‘What Lies Beneath’ ascends into a symphonic metal masterpiece.
The song’s lyrics contemplate the ambiguity of truth and the unsettling reality of our digital age, drawing parallels between witchcraft/voodoo and the deceptive allure of social media. Here, the "flat world" motif serves as a metaphor for the pervasive use of screens and algorithms that dominate modern society, hinting at hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface.
