“AS THE WALLS CLOSE IN” BY THE SILENCE INDUSTRY: FINDING SOLACE IN ISOLATION

Music I say is a food to the soul and every food taken in has its impact on the body and so is music. Sometimes you need the one that will push you beyond your limits and sometimes you need the one that will help you contain yourself. And sometimes you need the one that has to be your friend and your comforter and this is what The Silence Industry, a project founded by Graham Jackson in early 2007, has for us on their latest release “As the Walls Close In”. So if you’re ready, let’s get on the ride for what promises to be an intriguing journey.

The song, “As the Walls Close In,” is a bass-driven masterpiece, written and sung to carry us through all the struggles one faces from isolation. The song starts beautifully with this cold lonely, whirlwind haunting atmosphere that creates this curious vibes, which sets the listener in a mood ready to see what unfolds. Then those drums and guitars kicks in, creating this worry-about atmosphere. The song tho, talks about the feeling of isolation and despair that many of us goes through. Sometimes you’re left alone to wander and figure everything out yourself, like you feel soo empty, no one to talk to, no one to guide you and it’s like a kid that lost his parents at a young age and has to figure out life on their own. You feel soo distant from the society, cos you got lotta issues to deal with and thus sometimes you feel alone and disconnected. You really wish someone could understand you, or see things from your perspective but it’s you and your brain.

The song resonates deeply when you’re in such situation, it strikes your soul and connects you with the feels of the artist. Especially when everything around us seem to close us in, then this song provides a relieving pathway for our emotions. Now see this, while listening one thing you notice is, throughout the song, you realize Graham Jackson’s elite pen game, man especially with those deep lyrics that just hits your soul and pierces your heart, and makes you wanna tear all day, but then you realize you have no one to even share your worries with. My goodness, you gotta experience this sh** here, it’s magical and beautiful 😍.

Well “As the Walls Close In” ain’t just any song, but a beautiful ode that goes beyond conventional music boundaries that explores the deep wells of human emotions. From those deep lyrics, to those haunting vocals, coupled with amazing beats, this song is a solid 10/10 project. I love it soo much and infact I would say after listening to it for the first time, your end up adding to your favorite playlist.So go ahead and give it a good listen. ENJOY!!
