“Falling Down” is a gritty and unapologetic anthem that captures the chaotic descent into confusion, frustration, and existential questioning. With sharp, direct lyrics and a driving alternative rock edge, the song explores themes of deception, societal manipulation, and the loss of personal agency. It’s a bold commentary on modern struggles, from the overwhelming influence of social media to the mental toll of navigating a world that often feels indifferent.

The verses strike with biting observations, while the pre-chorus questions the resilience to endure another day. The chorus, simple yet powerful, repeats the phrase “Falling Down” like a mantra, emphasizing the inescapable spiral while inviting listeners to find their own strength within the chaos.

Musically, the track features a relentless rhythm section, raw vocals, and layered guitar riffs that transition between brooding verses and an explosive, cathartic chorus. “Falling Down” encapsulates the restless energy and emotional depth of Breaking the Silence, serving as both a reflection of inner turmoil and a rallying cry to confront it.

Music and Lyrics by Silversun Pickups
Arrangement and recording by Jesse Vinyl Jr.

Freakazoid (Silversun Pickups cover)

It is through his album "lazybones" released in 2023 that we got to know Officium. In the past couple years the multi-instrumentalist and DJ Alban Mercier's music has been spreading through France, Europe, all the way to Indonesia and Singapore, where he toured last summer. In this tenth episode of lazed, the artist shares a selection of electronic and non electronic favorites.

Officium: "An autumn-themed podcast in which a clouded mind may have forgotten parts, surrendering to the laziness induced by this change of season. A melancholic and misty romantic journey where joy and pleasure can appear amidst the fog that prevents the mind from thinking or recalling those scenes cut during editing, dissolved through the soul and selective memory. Created on a train somewhere between Brussels, Strasbourg, and Marseille, showcasing the damp, fog-filled autumn landscapes passing by."

A Song about Exploring the World and Oneself with a Sense of Wonder

A Better Place

Breaking Free from Solitude

The full audio for And the World Breaks Apart when you're not around, a song composed, sung, produced, and made by me for Twilight Dreams of Heartache by ‪@joshyanwriter‬.

The guitar was recorded from a real guitar from my family, and the drums were recorded from a few jams of me on Midi2Jam, the vocals were recorded by me, using my own singing mixed with a voice changer for a female voice.

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Once the sun has set
And the world shuts off once more
I sit down on the edge
Of the balcony where we once met..


でも落ちたとき
あなたはいつも私のために戻ってきました
But when the world breaks apart, will you still be there for me?


[Chorus]
私たちがもっと未熟だった日々が懐かしい
あなたは私の手を握って、私たちは一緒に逃げました
私の温かい息がまだあなたの肌に優しく感じます
And when the world breaks apart, will you still be here for me?


[Verse]
My warm and tender days
Are all fading away
Underneath the safe haven, that is you in this whole world..
でも、あなたが倒れたとき、
あなたに手が届かなかった
そして世界が崩壊したとき、あなたはまだ存在しますか?


[Chorus]
私たちがもっと未熟だった日々が懐かしい
あなたは私の手を握って、私たちは一緒に逃げました
私の温かい息がまだあなたの肌に優しく感じます
And when the world breaks apart, you're not around..

And the world breaks apart when you're not around

drown away my self-esteem
can't throw away the memories
i'm lost away, i'm losing touch
i remember when you would just

talk to me
and you loved me
talk to me
you're still what i need

Seeing live music is a transformative experience. Live Delay brought all the passion of the stage and the spice of the crowd direct to your ears, capturing the story of Australian music as it happened.

From the heart-pounding swagger of nationally-beloved live favourites to the sharp thrill of innovative new artists, our team scoured venues great and small across Meanjin/Brisbane to ensure you never missed out on the finest musical treasures the city had to offer. For eleven years, Live Delay brought the thrilling sound of our live music scene to the community and archived these live recordings and broadcasts through our Soundcloud page. In 2024, for a variety of creative and pragmatic reasons, Live Delay switched from a pre-recorded podcast-style program to a live broadcast from 4ZZZ Studio 2 each Friday afternoon featuring a live gig guide and various other up-to-the-minute information about live music in Meanjin/Brisbane.

On air from January 2013 to November 2024, Live Delay was broadcast on 4ZZZ, Zed Digital, and the Community Radio Network. The program is currently on indefinite hiatus.
