ASK ADRIAN BENEGAS
MODERN POWER METAL WITH A CINEMATIC EDGE
Remembering who we are
GROWING HEARTS is more than a melodic metal anthem; it is a reflection on identity, awareness, and the courage to look within. In a world where we are constantly searching for meaning outside ourselves, the song invites us to pause and question who we are beyond our fears, achievements, and the stories we have built around ourselves.
Through its powerful melodies and atmospheric sound, GROWING HEARTS explores the space between the avatar we believe we are and who we really are. Every thought, word, and choice shapes not only the world around us, but also the one we grow into.
Featuring the powerful vocals of Herbie Langhans, Eric Juris on guitars, and Sascha Paeth on mix and master, the release brings together music and visual storytelling as one complete artistic experience.
Created with a deeply human approach, every visual element, from the artwork and photography to the hand-illustrated, OFFICIAL ANIMATED VIDEO, reflects the song’s message of self-awareness, compassion, and genuine transformation.
