"Evenpath is our third and final single for our upcoming EP 'Rumination Theory". The goal was to write something a bit melancholy and ballad like but without losing the fun synths, interesting riffs and diverse ideas that we're known for! It's actually been a bit of a running joke that since our Curse Of Dawn days we've been able to happily write most things, but our attempts at ballads have always been very meh. It's certainly given us a new appreciation for bands/songs in that style!
It was actually written before the formation of In Sϕnder when we'd been hoping to get a new project together but weren't sure what that would look like in terms of lineup. Initially there were some concerns that this might be too different to the new "cyber metal" direction, but I've always been super passionate about it and fortunately the others agreed once I'd finished mocking up a new enhanced version!
The track has a number of cool parts for me - I love the chord sequence in the verse as it's balanced, neither too optimistic or sad. I really like the textural combination of the live clean guitar and a synth patch that's emulating guitar but isn't quite realistic enough. Another favourite is the vocal harmony section that has the pulsing arppegiator and the outro which does an interesting in phasing between two different keys. It took me awhile to understand what's happening there but I really dig it and hopefully you will too! - Fletch

Lyrics
Standing on the precipice nothing ever seems clear
Beneath the weight of my failures there's nowhere left to hide
I’ve lost sight of what choice is wrong and which is right
Give me the strength to surge ahead through this frontier
Nobody can tell you which way you should turn
Only your conviction will guide you through this maze
The Even Path is the way forward
A balance of good and what needs to be learnt
Sever your doubts and cast them aside
You will find your way if you take a stride
The exhaustion is settling in
And the sun is getting low
When it all falls apart, where do you begin?
Overwhelmed you sink like a stone
The Even Path is the way forward
A balance of good and what needs to be learnt
Sever your doubts and cast them aside
You will find your way if you take a stride
