After nearly five years since their multi-award-winning ‘Torch Of Rock And Roll’ redefined their explosive modern classic rock sound – with the timeless power ballad “Kickin’ Stones” earning acclaim in Billboard Magazine Argentina – The Mighty One storms back with a crushing new single, ‘SHATTERED’.

Fresh off the triumphant 2025 Colombian tour capped by a sold-out, electrifying finale in Bogotá, the band delivers a high-octane declaration of apocalyptic freedom.

SHATTERED is no ordinary track – it’s a sonic sledgehammer to the crumbling façade of reality. Frontman Tim Steinruck confronts the global AI takeover, societal collapse, political decay, and the relentless lies fed by governments, institutions, and corporate media. Yet amid the chaos, the song celebrates the revelation of our true human divinity, power, freedom, and immortality.

“Live like we never will die,
Live like we’re kings of the sky,
Always eternal,
Power internal,
We fly”

The song’s visuals capture the defiant spirit of the band’s new awakening – shattering old chains and rising eternal. With the iconic line “Old rules are shattered / Now all that matters is right here, and now” SHATTERED becomes the ultimate anthem of rebellious surrender – embracing the fracture as the gateway to godlike power.

The illusion has ended.
The real has begun.

Watch “ABSOLVE” HERE: https://youtu.be/LTEEMJx92ig

ØVI unveil “Absolve,” the closing track from their new EP Hedera Helix, available today on all streaming platforms. Serving as the final statement of the four-track release, “Absolve” channels confrontation into clarity, presenting metal as a force of transformation rather than collapse.

Named after the ivy plant Hedera helix, a species known for relentless expansion and endurance, the EP reflects themes of growth through pressure and renewal through destruction. Across the record, ØVI examines toxic relationships, parasitic dynamics, and the reclamation of personal will. The music moves with intention, tracing the moment when survival becomes self-definition.

“Absolve” stands as the EP’s culmination. Anger becomes a refining element, burning away stagnation and sharpening purpose. The track mirrors ivy’s persistence. Structures that no longer sustain life are dismantled so growth can take hold. The recurring refrain, “Absolve, Rectify, Solidify,” functions as ritual language, a mantra aimed at severing attachment to decay and reinforcing forward motion.

The song closes Hedera Helix with momentum and resolve. Rather than yielding to exhaustion, ØVI push toward transcendence, choosing action, renewal, and evolution. The record ends in motion, advancing with deliberate force and unbroken focus.

Hedera Helix is out now.

OVI:

• Michael Nolasco – Vocals/Guitar
• Zed Amarin – Drums
• Kevin McCombs – Bass
• Brendan Collins – Guitar

About ØVI:

Influenced by NEOBLIVISCARIS, GOJIRA, DIMMU BORGIR, and NINE INCH NAILS, ØVI builds a sound that blends cinematic heaviness with electronic elements, evolving harmonic layers, and dynamic rhythmic structures. The result is an immersive, modern metal experience that balances aggression with emotion, density with clarity.

At its core, ØVI approaches metal as a narrative medium, using sound to explore power, guilt, and identity. Hedera Helix stands as both confrontation and metamorphosis, music that refuses to fade quietly, instead clawing toward self-definition and growth.
