Forever in Transit premiere new album A Coming To Terms
Forever in Transit, US based progressive metal quartet around multi-instrumentalist Dan Sciolino, is ready to drop their album sophomore album, “A Coming to Terms”, releasing on September 13th, 2024, following up their 2018 debut “States of Disconnection”. We are happy to present an advance stream of the entire album, exlusively here on The Progspace.
“A Coming to Terms” is conceptually rooted in the themes of identity and self-acceptance. The album begins with the track ‘Let Go Your Earthly Tether’, which explores the challenge of unraveling the different biases and attachments that make it difficult to identify yourself, and the urge to discard those ties in a desperate effort to find inner peace. ‘What Lies Beneath’ navigates the relationship between ourselves and the self-rationalizing narrative that we spin that compromises our identity. ‘Streams of Thought’ is about the frustrations that we encounter when we try to find meaning or inner peace – it can take countless attempts or approaches and sometimes we arrive more lost than we began. ‘I Cling to Threads’ represents the difficulty of letting go of our wants and expectations, even if they actually are the root cause of our suffering. ‘Enter the Void’ deals with actuality and impermanence, and the idea that once we set aside all of the things we are supposed to “do” or “be”, then we are actually free to become anyone or anything that we can imagine. ‘Empty and Become Wind’ deals with self-actualization, building on the themes presented in earlier songs as a culmination of becoming the person you were always meant to be. ‘A Coming to Terms’ is the final step in the journey – learning to love and accept the person that you are, and to wield your identity with honesty and integrity.
