The Second Glimpse Of Grimmreaper’s “The Tragedy of Being” Comes Forth With “Catastrophe of the Tragic Melancholies”
Track Premiere via NewFuryMedia
“The Tragedy of Being” Due Out February 2021
Grimmreaper continues to tantalize listeners with the second single “Catastrophe of the Tragic Melancholies”, which is taken off the upcoming album “The Tragedy of Being”.
Calculated and cold, yet maintaining a glimmer of heartfelt hope, Grimmreaper wants to take listeners on an emotional and spiritual wave, from hopelessness in the pounding drums and echoing screams to happiness found in the grooves of the music and the hope of the lyrics.
Lyrically, Grimmreaper writes about what seems to be the default condition to consciousness, suffering. Humans seem to be presented with a world rife with torment and agony. The single, “Catastrophe of the Tragic Melancholies” attempt to make contact with Grimm’s shadow, from a Jungian perspective. He explains further:
“This is a naked look into the worst parts of my soul, my shadow, the parts of my soul and fantasies that I want to pretend don’t exist. Carl Jung popularized the idea of the shadow, the part of yourself you don’t want to see. Your dark fantasies, your malevolence, the things you turn a blind eye to, those make up the shadow, in a broad sense. This song is what happened when I realized I was capable of reprehensible actions, and that I could even enjoy them. I made contact with my shadow. The lyrics talk about how I have realized I’m not a good person, and I was very naive to think I was.”
“The Tragedy of Being” is a descent into the underworld to confront your own self. As a concept album, the tracks are listed in a very particular order to give a certain experience, but at the same time, every song is built to stand on its own as a powerful expression.
Listeners can experience the default conditions of life, tragedy, and suffering, and the options they present, nihilism and resentment, or transcendence and courage. Recommended especially for fans of In Flames, Meshuggah, and Dragonforce the single “Catastrophe of the Tragic Melancholies” can be heard via its premiere on NewFuryMedia HERE.

About:
Logan Grimm is an ambitious young artist seeking to take on the world, and the creator of Grimmreaper. He has developed an intense backstory for a multimedia project that explores the very human realities of tragedy and suffering, and the choices they present, from nihilism and resentment to transcendence and courage. In the process of this, he has crafted music that fuses the influences of highly technical bands like Dragonforce and Meshuggah with the work of more mainstream names such as Five Finger Death Punch and Bullet For My Valentine.
The project, which will start to see release in the early half of 2021, will center around an album entitled The Tragedy Of Being. The record explores noble and contemptible ways to respond to the conditions inherent to human consciousness. Since it is wholly a solo project, Grimm will perform on the record as each ‘band member.’ He will also represent each member in the videos released for the project, each hidden behind a black hood with a different appearance. The Tragedy Of Being will be accompanied by a documentary of the creation process featuring the twin personalities of the business-minded Logan and the poetic artist, Grimm. It will embody his sense of humor, split personas, and inspirations.
Representing himself as the embodiment of his lyrical themes, Logan Grimm has built a strong visual presence for the project. Instantly recognizable and endlessly ambitious, there are a lot of interesting twists and turns presented in the work of Grimmreaper. With a bright future painted before him featuring everything from forming a DIY label to endless touring, Logan Grimm has the ambition and the vision to match. Poised to be the next great force in metal, Grimmreaper look boldly into the future.
