This odd moment paves the way for what is to come, as the track quickly plunges into a dark, dystopian atmosphere.
With driving, industrial grooves, the rhythm feels like it’s building towards something intense, while a mysterious cadence pulls you further into the unknown.
The vocals in this piece, drenched in reverb, feel almost prophetic, as though an oracle is speaking from the peak of a mountain made of steel in a city that calls to mind the bleak, futuristic visions of Blade Runner.
As the track progresses, it takes an unexpected turn. The chorus arrives with a melody that’s anything but conventional. There’s an unexpected harmonic and rhythmic shift that leaves you slightly disoriented, but in a way that feels intentional.
The band’s willingness to experiment with complex structures is evident here, taking risks that pay off refreshingly. Kids in Decay are not content to follow the well-trodden paths of their peers.
Once the verse returns, you’re once again pulled into the ethereal world the band has crafted, knowing that the journey is far from over. And just when you think you’ve figured it out, the song shifts again—this time, it builds to an overwhelming climax.
The bridge is particularly interesting, where the track briefly empties out, leaving behind a space that allows tension to build before an explosive finale. Here, a guitar solo makes its appearance, adding a burst of energy before an epic outro that ties everything together in a satisfying, albeit intense, conclusion.
Dark Tetrad is a track that refuses to be confined to a single genre or expectation. It’s bold, unpredictable, and packs a punch. Kids in Decay clearly have a knack for pushing boundaries and aren’t afraid to venture into uncharted territory.

Unpredictable!
Kids in Decay fuse groove metal grit with progressive rock-metal ambition, crafting a sound that is hauntingly cinematic and fiercely unpredictable. Balancing melancholic beauty with raw aggression, they weave heavy, ethereal guitars, electronic beats, and orchestral elements into an intricate, emotionally charged experience. Their latest work, Dark Tetrad, delves into the shadowed corners of human nature, while their upcoming album, Breaking Radio Silence, confronts personal struggle, societal disillusionment, and the paradox of belonging nowhere yet fitting in everywhere.
