LA nu metallers TETRARCH have released the third single "Cold", taken from their upcoming third album The Ugly Side of Me, due out May 9 via Napalm Records.

Co-produced by Dave Otero, Diamond Rowe, and Josh Fore, the single follows "Never Again (Parasite)" and "Live Not Fantasize", which have received positive reviews from various metal media.

Featuring an intricate guitar solo from Rowe, the band's co-founder and Jackson Guitars' first female signature artist, the new single's lyrical themes tackle self-doubt and toxic relationships.

You can watch a visualizer for "Cold" below:

Rowe says of The Ugly Side of Me's third single:

“'Cold' was one of those songs that came together pretty fast. It was one of the first songs that we wrote for the record and once we started building the textures, leads and vocals it really came to life. I feel like it’s kind of a nod to our Freak album as it has that energetic four on the floor beat with glitchy and creepy guitar textures.

"While writing this song, we kept throwing around the word “insecure”. Insecurity is such an uncomfortable emotion to have and it easily became the lyrical direction for this track.

" I also can’t wait to play this one live. I think everyone is going to go nuts.”
