A Question of Our Own Worth: ‘Shine’ by The Octopus Division

‘Shine’ by The Octopus Division

The music of The Octopus Division is akin to a mysterious mist that envelops the synth-pop landscape. Its catchy hooks resemble hidden forest paths, leading us to danceable rhythms. The evocative lyrics linger in our minds like faded paintings. Matt Muncie, who calls the shady streets of San Diego home, creates modern vibes reminiscent of the '80s, allowing them to shine anew.

Inspired by Depeche Mode and the dark electro sound of the '80s, The Octopus Division presents their latest work, ‘Shine.’ It reflects on the human experience, exploring the search for connection, the journey through darkness and uncertainty, and the inner conflict between fear and hope. The bright lights encountered on our journey reveal possibilities and opportunities despite the challenges. Ultimately, it’s about whether we’re willing to face the unknown, overcome our fears, and answer the question of our own worth.

In their latest release, titled ‘Shine,’ The Octopus Division evokes the synth-pop sound of the 1980s, characterized by a sense of musical cohesion and evolution. The track’s distinctive, stirring melodies and dynamic shifts resonate with a contemporary sensibility, evoking a sense of depth and harmony.
