This is a basic demo mix of a new track with just guitar, bass and vocals. Deliberately creepy, quirky theme to the lyrics, just for fun. Not quite sure where it fits in the Metal genre, but could imagine Alice Cooper on vocals for this one!

Artist picture
ABYHNHO is an Australian based collaborative project, focusing mostly on modern melodic metal /prog metal /hard rock. Not tied to just a single genre.
Abyhnho is a Metal/Hard Rock project created by Grant Smith, and currently based in Bendigo, Australia. The aim is to produce modern melodic Metal/Hard Rock with a leaning towards the melodic and progressive side of Metal. Think along the lines of Tool meets QOTSA meets Soen. Not really tied to one particular genre by design, just wherever develops - but usually heavy. Enjoy making music with a bit of light and shade, and with a hard edge to it. More a collaborative music project than a touring band at the moment.

Story behind the song
Original idea by Stuart (guitarist) with a few extra bits and expanded/modified lyrics from Grant (bass/vocals). Still some more fine tuning to be done before recording it all properly.
Lyrics
THE GLASS JAR I watch and wait, to seal your fate Nowhere to hide I'll hold you tight, no second site Please come inside I know what you need my precious one From near or far I can keep you safe just like a bug In my glass jar Desolation coming down A voice that makes no sound I reach inside your mind Your soul is lost behind One perfect kiss, but here's the twist That you can't see From your sweet lips the poison drips That sets you free I won't let you go, my special one So near, so far I will keep you safe, just like a bug In my glass jar You won't be the first or be the last To go this far I have kept them all just like the bugs In my glass jar What is left? Who is right? Our first day Your last night Desolation's coming down What's lost and then is found A ghost inside your mind Your life is left behind When you're mine/When you're mine When you're... / When you're... Inside, inside my glass jar / Inside, inside my glass jar Inside, inside my glass jar / Inside, inside my glass jar
