Single Review: SHOCK OCTOPUS ‘Life On A Pier’

 Faction Art-Rockers Shock Octopus return again with a multi-tentacled grasp for their fourth EP, 'Enter the Exit'. Remaining consistent with their lobbyist esteems, 'Enter the Exit' depends on ecological issues, atmosphere melancholy, and existential emergency – a composition for the 'time of outcome'. The subjects of the collection have just prompted energetic meetings through Beat Magazine, people group radio, and natural themed digital broadcasts. 

Subsequent to perusing the Philip K Dick epic Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said focal lyricist Michael Bayliss was overwhelmed by the symbolism of the book title alone. This roused the composition of center single 'Life On A Pier' that is part science fiction end of the world and part natural commendation.

'Life On A Pier' is part discofied craftsmanship pop and part coordinated prog rock. It is persistently eager, advancing through numerous melodic thoughts, yet never shunning heartbeat or tune. It begins with a chugging guitar riff, that is before long joined by an air tone, and science fiction sounding tones and tunes that exemplify an inclination that you are skimming out of this world. It brings you into this elective universe and paints distinctive scenes and symbolism as the tune takes you on an excursion through the experience of human spirits and the intricacies that emerge with musings and feelings we attempt to cover up. It is a tune that incites profound considerations, and pulls you away from the real world, giving you an unworldly encounter dissimilar to no other. The tune has a tribute style, which makes this development of feelings, and makes a developing strain before the melody scatters with a boat howling sound, that carries you down to earth. 

This single is just barely starting to expose what their EP will hold. It holds this colossal force that will move your musings and your feelings drastically. The conveyance of this track is striking, it seems like I am back in my youth years tuning in to 'War of the Worlds' soundtrack with my father; it holds solid and inciting symbolism with great instrumentation, and incredible vocals to include more style for dramatizations. It is a general incredible track that conveys in a new viewpoint and portrayal that you don't frequently hear. I without a doubt am eager to perceive what else this new section will hold for Shock Octopus.
