    uniE603 I AM HE
    Brand new song from the upcoming second album "Inherent" from my solo extreme metal project Davola. Inherent is scheduled for a September 2016 release. The concept behind the song is an observation of the destructive nature of the EGO when out of balance which is the ongoing theme throughout the record. "I AM HE" is song depicts a one man war between the EGO and the SELF as the individual struggles to come to grips with his own unconscious way of living. Readers will find out if follow along with the lyrics. #music #audio #album #song
