If ever a band was appropriately named it is this Lebanese prog metal outfit, as their homeland has undergone nothing but turbulent times for the past five decades (or more) and has entered a new phase in recent days. This is the latest single to be taken from the quartet’s latest concept album, released this past March:

Keyboardist Mood Yassin describes the track by saying:

‘Ternary’ is the closing number of a five-track epic song, a pivotal piece in a concept album that explores the fusion of human consciousness with artificial intelligence. The song offers a profound exploration of the threefold nature of human consciousness – of mind, of heart, and of soul – conveyed with evocative lyrics and immersive instrumentation. Each section represents a unique facet of existence: the mind’s search for the rational and disillusionment, the heart’s struggle with pride and vulnerability, and the soul’s silent, transcendent essence, expressed throughout a haunting instrumental.

By weaving these elements together, ‘Ternary’ not only reflects the complexity of the human experience through the lens of a robot awakening, but also resonates with anyone seeking harmony within themselves. It’s more than a song – it’s an introspective journey that challenges you to connect with your deepest self.
