Boston metal band The Offering have unveiled their new single "Tiny Disappointments.”

The song, which can be heard below, is from the band’s forthcoming studio album Seeing The Elephant, which will be released on November 4th via Century Media Records.

Vocalist Alex Richichi said this about the song:

“Even on my most wonderful days, I can find myself feeling strangled by my own expectations and find myself disappointed in little facets of the world, in everyone, and everything. I have found life is made up of ‘Tiny Disappointments’, where overcoming and coping with these ultimately becomes the hardest thing we do every day. This song addresses those feelings of drowning, which I believe is universal in the human experience - albeit on different scales.”

Guitarist Nishad George also said:

"During the writing process for ‘Seeing the Elephant’, my dad's cancer diagnosis had gotten much worse, and I had felt this pressure knowing this would be my last album that he could listen to. Living up to my own expectations for making that special was strenuous. I eventually stumbled upon the opening chord to ‘Tiny Disappointments’, and I just let go - I blinked and 12 hours of euphoria later, the song was complete. It was a massive turning point in the writing process for the album. Less than a month before he passed away, my dad finally got to listen to the album, and singled out this song as the best we've ever done. I couldn't agree more."

“Tiny Disappointments” is available on digital services right now. Pre-orders for Seeing The Elephant can be made here. Seeing The Elephant follows The Offering’s 2019 debut album Home.
