Modern metal stars TETRARCH recently announced their massive upcoming third album, The Ugly Side Of Me, scheduled for release on May 9, 2025 via Napalm Records. Featuring needle-sharp production co-produced by Dave Otero, Diamond Rowe and Josh Fore, The Ugly Side Of Me boasts unrelenting brutality, catchiness and songwriting mastery.

Following the album's first singles "Never Again (Parasite)" ("a sturdy showing of melody and muscle" - Knotfest) and "Live Not Fantasize" ("positively booming" - Revolver), TETRARCH have just dropped their latest anthem, the melodic hit "Cold". The track is carefully injected with an intricate guitar solo from newly-minted first female Jackson Guitars signature artist Diamond Rowe, and wrestles with intense lyrical themes of self-doubt and toxic relationship cycles.

The single also arrives alongside the band's announcement of new European tour dates, including stops in Germany, Spain and more. See below for a full listing, and stay tuned for more dates being added soon!

Diamond Rowe of TETRARCH offers about "Cold":

""Cold" was one of those songs that came together pretty fast. It was one of the first songs that we wrote for the record and once we started building the textures, leads and vocals it really came to life. I feel like it's kind of a nod to our Freak album as it has that energetic four on the floor beat with glitchy and creepy guitar textures.

While writing this song, we kept throwing around the word "insecure". Insecurity is such an uncomfortable emotion to have and it easily became the lyrical direction for this track.

I also can't wait to play this one live. I think everyone is going to go nuts."

After four years of intensely focused growth, TETRARCH is poised to top the multi-millions of cross-platform streams and views of their addictive singles and high-energy videos, frequent playlisting via Spotify, Apple and others, mainstream top 40 Active Rock radio blitzes, attention from major media like Billboard, Revolver, Alternative Press, Guitar World, Kerrang! and Metal Hammer, and international tours supporting legendary artists Sevendust, Atreyu and beyond.

If there is any question as to whether a band can push the confines of metal and hard rock in to the future, TETRARCH are the answer. Combining energetic modern musical aggression and lyrical honesty with colossal choruses and unforgettable melodies, TETRARCH appeal to fans both in and outside of the metal scene, providing newcomers a gateway into heavy music.

TETRARCH's Napalm Records debut, Unstable (2021), received massive critical acclaim. Its debut single, "I'm Not Right", cracked the Mediabase Active Rock Top 30 and has garnered over 15 million combined cross-platform streams to date. Follow up single "You Never Listen" later went on to receive keen support from SiriusXM, HardDrive, Full Metal Jackie and many more of the country's leading active rock outlets.

Among its perfectly crafted 10 tracks, new album The Ugly Side Of Me cuts like 90s industrial-injected single "Live Not Fantasize" - which premiered via SiriusXM Liquid Metal upon its release alongside Diamond Rowe's Jackson Guitars signature launch - thrill with intense electronic flourishes, quick riffage and dynamic, spine-tingling guitar solos. Anthemic second single "Never Again (Parasite)" - featuring the standout vocal debut of Diamond Rowe - carefully balances thick grooves and massive atmosphere with deep-cutting lyricism and the mulit-faceted vocal breadth of frontman Josh Fore. Tracks like album opener "Anything Like Myself" showcase the hypnotizing, crushing metallic brilliance of the band while flirting with Josh Fore's intense screams and Ruben Limas' punching drums, while the likes of "Best Of Luck" stand tall with the rhythmic basslines of Ryan "Dooms" Lerner and Rowe's inventive riff artistry. Profound melodic bangers like "Erase" and "Cold" are injected with intricate guitar solos, while "Headspace" and "The Only Thing I've Got" thrust the vital, brooding elements of TETRARCH into the forefront. Each track succeeds with lyrical themes of facing our own darkest criticisms - embracing the healing notion that what we feel others may see as our worst traits actually define the greatest aspects of our individuality.

Metal is practically begging for its next wave of genre frontrunners, and with one listen it's clear - TETRARCH lead the charge.
