New striking strokes

Band: THE CHRONICLES OF MANIMAL AND SAMARA

Who: London-based DIY duo – Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy)
that fills a gap in music by bringing literature, art, and history together into
a space where rock and metal meet electronica.

They released two splendid albums so far.
Trust No Leaders (2022) and Full Spectrum (2021)

New single: FEED THE BEAST

Following Mysterium Tremendum the duo’s 2nd new piece of 2024.
So far, no sign of a third LP.

TUTV: Feed The Beast is about addiction and recovery. It dives into the tumultuous
inner journey of learning how to live all over again. The barbed and emotional quest
starts cinematically with Ang‘s near-whispering voice echoing intriguingly, at the
1-minute mark Papi joins in vocally and metallically causing mental turmoil.

From there on, the mercurial and emotional trip gets fragmented, swinging forth
and back, and drawing all of your auditory attention until the volcanic finale hits
you in the face. You need a couple of spins to discover all layers of this head-twisting
prog-metal-rock jam. You know where to find the repeat button. Another dazzling ride.
