hubris. - The One Above [NEW ALBUM]

Buy: Genre: Post rock, ambient Artist: hubris. Album: The One Above (February 10 - 2023) Country: Fribourg, Switzerland Website: Facebook: Bandcamp: Youtube: Instagram: This album, just like their three previous albums, delves into Greek Mythology. This one incorporates an additional concept by exploring the works of Plato and his allegory of the cave. The allegory is divided into four distinctive parts which are represented by each of the songs. ​The album can be interpreted in two ways. Either by starting from the title track and therefore starting the allegory from the top, or from the last track of the album and working one’s way out of the cave. Each song represents a facet of the allegory (e.g. Of Light representing the fire used to create and project the shadows, but also the knowledge that is to be acquired by the characters in the story) and they can be perceived in an optimistic light, i.e. one manages to escape the cave and behold reality - or a more pessimistic one. Yet, both ways of exploring the allegory can be perceived as either the “happier“ one or the “sadder“ one which this album also aims to persuade. There is no right way to analyse the allegory - it is all but subjective. In that sense, not only reality is subjective, but also whether one version of the story is “better“ than the other one.
