Alt-Metalcore duo Atheana announce a brand new era with latest single 'Burden'
Atheana’s path has been far from clear as of late. Amongst the writing and touring commitments of last two years, the duo has seen multiple line-up changes - something that would bring any band to its knees. Atheana, however, is not just any band.
‘Burden’ is the culmination of years of relentless determination from vocalist Soph Payton and guitarist Ross Jubber - confidently breaking new ground for the duo.
On the lyrical content, Payton said ‘Burden is an ode to those who are still searching for somewhere to belong; for anyone who has ever felt like they are too much while simultaneously not enough. Exploring intense themes of mental illness and loneliness It’s a song that is really close to our hearts as it permeates new vulnerable territory.’
Discussing the songwriting and recording process, Payton added
‘after a (very) lengthy process, multiple iterations of the track, and a fair few member changes, Burden finally found life in the studio with our good friend and producer Ryan Williams. We have spent countless hours devoting ourselves to this release in its entirety and we can’t wait to finally share the next chapter of Atheana.’
