Diving into the essence of the track, the band shared: 

“An anxious traveller fights himself through struggles. Ghosts from the past are holding him down and heavy words from his past are echoing in his head. Finally he breaks free from the burdens of past and finds his way home.” 

Tracklist:
1. Wanderer
2. Here I Stand
3. Watch the World Burn with Me
4. Evolve
5. Where the Dreams Come to Die
6. From the Ashes
7. Dead Cold Silence
8. Thousand Skies
9. Stray

Hailing from the darkened realm of Kouvola, Finland, THE HYPOTHESIS was founded in 2009 as a melodic metal entity driven by the desire to break free from genre constraints and evolve with each musical endeavor. With former members now playing in renowned bands such as Opeth and Stratovarius, THE HYPOTHESIS is a powerhouse quartet with a relentless drive for musical excellence.

Having toured Finland, the Baltic countries, and Spain with notable acts such as Wolfheart and Swallow the Sun, and shared festival stages worldwide with acts such as Scar Symmetry, Before the Dawn, Amaranthe, and more, THE HYPOTHESIS are ready to unveil the highly anticipated next chapter in the band’s history!
