Cosmic Souls, the enigmatic Heavy Metal trio, fiercely unleashes “Three Things”. This dark anthem confronts the insidious system that lulls us into complacency with totalitarianism, channeling the powerful spirit of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s legendary Gulag-era maxim (“Don’t believe, don’t fear, don’t ask”) as a rallying cry for freedom.
ORDER “THREE THINGS” ON BANDCAMP NOW!
In an era where systems demand conformity and culture often leans toward passive drift, Cosmic Souls offer something far more abrasive, thoughtful, and unyielding. The band—a trio bound together by a shared alienation from mainstream noise—pours melancholic sophistication and raw, crushing energy into their heavy single, “Three Things.”

Musically, Cosmic Souls navigate a dark, dynamic space. Drawing inspiration from the complex, atmospheric narrative structures of Opeth and combining them with the punishing, syncopated riff-work reminiscent of Gojira, the trio creates an immersive experience where intricate musicianship meets raw force. Their music lives in contrast: delicate melancholy colliding head-on with polyrhythmic chaos.
“Three Things” serves as a direct refusal to participate in a world increasingly tolerant of brutalization and totalitarian creep. Inspired by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s legendary Gulag-era maxim (“Don’t believe, don’t fear, don’t ask”), the track operates as a modern manifesto against systemic complicity.
The song traces a narrative arc of disillusionment with institutional hypocrisy—calling out those who preach ethics they do not practice and attempt to place a price tag on human experience. Rather than submitting to despair, the dynamic structure builds toward a stark, powerful climax that distills Solzhenitsyn’s survival ethos into a uncompromising declaration:
“And when I set out I say three things to myself: Don’t trust. Don’t fear. Don’t plead.”
Operating free from the constraints of the music industry, Cosmic Souls have refined their artistry amidst tight budgetary limits, allowing their solitude to fuel a vibrant and unique creative vision. They celebrate their position on the fringes, describing their music as “music for outsiders and losers and those who want to become one.”
