‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass. The time that relentlessly pursues us, according to ‘Time keeps chasing us every day’, is not portrayed as an enemy, but as a constant touchstone that we face with our heads held high: ‘ We won't let the rain wash us away’ . Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other. The garden in which hopes take root becomes a symbol of what must be nurtured in order to flourish. And when ‘ our songs have lost a note or two ’, it is not a flaw, but proof of lived depth.

Schallmoos’ “Abhängigkeit” delves into the complexity and uncertainty of love and dependence

"Abhängigkeit" by Schallmoos

Schallmoos , Studio
Nothing is what it looks like and everything looks like what it is, one would like to yell, “Swindlers, deceivers, self-righteous!” But among all the double-talk and obscurity, a trace of sincerity remains even in the most uncomfortable situations. Schallmoos are back with their latest release called “Abhängigkeit”.
“Am I hopelessly hooked on her, or is she on me? Do we not click perfectly? Are we on the edge of danger? Or is it not an edge, just a slight tilt? A tilt into the deep blues?” But what does the song mean? The meaning may be different for everyone who listens with their own passionate heart. A very lively and catchy song with a certain irresistible spark. A flute solo that makes you feel the intense thrill. A thrill of love and doubt. A doubt that keeps you desperately hanging on. Are you hanging on to her, or is she hanging on to you, or are we hanging on to Schallmoos? Fantastic alternative rock from Austria!
