Fans, affectionately known as Black Roses, have taken to social media to express their excitement and gratitude, trending hashtags like #DualityByTheRose and #TheRoseComeback within hours of the release. The band has also announced a world tour to support the album, with stops planned across Asia, Europe, North America, and South America.
- With “Duality,” The Rose proves that they are not just growing — they’re blooming into one of the most compelling acts in modern rock music. As the petals of their creativity unfold, this release signals not just a comeback, but a powerful evolution in artistry, identity, and emotion.
