On this episode of the Talk Toomey podcast, Diamond and Josh from Tetrarch discuss their new single, "Live Not Fantasize," and how it evolved from a casual demo to one of their favorite tracks. They reflect on the challenges of crafting a memorable guitar solo that fits their nu-metal style, with Diamond sharing her pride in how it turned out. The conversation delves into the lyrical themes of overcoming negativity and self-doubt, and the music video’s storyline, which follows an outcast finding comfort in an unexpected place. They also give behind-the-scenes insights into the video production process and the fun moments on set.
Josh reflects on how excited and supportive he was when Diamond was approached by Jackson to design a signature guitar, recalling their shared dreams from high school. Diamond explains how the process took two years, highlighting the creative freedom Jackson gave her to design the guitar in her own style. She also touches on how honored she feels to break barriers as a woman of color in the metal scene, while emphasizing that her success is rooted in a genuine passion for heavy music and guitar. The conversation ends with hints about new music possibly coming in 2025.
