The Story
Ouroborus, The Snake Eating Its Own Tail, is Tierra Krieg’s ultimate Fantasy Metal epic — a soaring, thunderous concept album inspired by the mythic depth of The NeverEnding Story. Across thirteen interconnected tracks, the record journeys from the fading ember of imagination to the blinding rebirth of the soul’s own mythic realm. Each song is a chapter in the battle against the Nothing — not a monster, but the slow erosion of meaning, wonder, and self. Through galloping hero’s marches, crushing doom-laden laments, industrial-tinged satire, and transcendent orchestral climaxes, Ouroborus weaves a metal opera of archetypes, trials, and spiritual rebellion.
At its heart, the album is a rallying cry: belief is no escape — it is resistance. The listener becomes Bastion, Atreyu, and the Childlike Empress all at once, facing down despair, reclaiming the sacred feminine, and speaking the name that resurrects Fantasia. With sweeping choirs, operatic duets, crushing riffs, and symphonic grandeur, Ouroborus is both a metal masterpiece and a mythic ritual — closing its own circle only to begin again in the heart of whoever dares to believe.
