Rock n Roll Genocide

Hello! I have always wanted to cover this song and now I have an awesome reason to finally do it - I recorded this as a present to all my friends with little ones, as a reminder of how much Aunty Mish loves them. It's by no means perfect as I recorded it at home but I had lots of fun doing it! Hope you like it.

"Winter" by Tori Amos - Vocal Cover

This song represents the new musical direction for Torizon. Lyrically, "Falling" explores the vicious cycle of abuse and how victims can be empowered to break free and become survivors of abuse, as explained by vocalist Mish: "The lyrics are written from the point of view of a victim confronting their abuser. Abuse victims tend to lose their sense of self and fall for the same manipulative patterns because subconsciously they believe that they deserve such treatment. This song gives the victim an empowering position to take control and leave an abusive relationship - to stop falling for the trap that the abuser will change."

The first song Torizon ever wrote, "Shine On" is a sentimental and important track to the band. Lyrically, "Shine On" focuses on overcoming trauma and never letting anything hold you back, as vocalist Mish explains: “I wrote the lyrics after coming out of an abusive relationship. After a few months of self-doubt, I woke up one day with an immense sense of empowerment, a strong desire to rebuild myself and to 'Shine On' no matter what! For the first time in years I had found myself again – I was happy, scared, grieving and excited all at the same time. I felt strongly about being honest in this song for others who may find themselves in a similar situation and have lost their sense of self and their self-worth. We have all felt like that at some point in our lives and it is possible to rebuild when you feel you’ve lost everything you ever knew. You are not alone, we all deserve security, love, happiness and to Shine On.”

Shine On - Torizon

The lyrics in "Immerse" use the ocean as a metaphor for anxiety and depression. Vocalist Mish offers her insight: "I wrote these lyrics to talk about mental health, an issue that is prevalent in our society and is ruining many lives. If I was to draw the waves of anxiety and depression, the picture will look like an ocean where the waves come and go but you still move forward. This metaphor allowed me to describe this strong visceral feeling by painting a picture and asking, are you aware that the water is rising high? It suggests that depression is the worst when you don't realise it is happening. We only recognise it when we are in the downward spiral of mood. By that time it feels like quicksand where the harder you try to 'snap out of it', the worse it gets because of guilt and shame. The song resolves itself where the sufferer gains acceptance of what is, and takes steps to self care because they don't want to drown. It is imperative to know your true self and recognise the signs of anxiety and depression, and have tools to tackle it as soon as you start seeing the signs. Everyone deserves happiness and an understanding of your triggers and where they come from puts you in a powerful position to navigate these powerful emotions."

Immerse

"Hey You" explores a topic that is almost tabooed in our current global political climate - the pitfalls and hypocrisy of religion. The track tackles this complex issue head-on, offering some frank insights underpinned by painful personal experiences. Said vocalist Mish of the track, "I drew inspiration for this song from my upbringing. I started seeing loopholes in the strict religious beliefs and their followers at a very young age. I was sexually abused and relentlessly bullied by people in a position of power within these religious institutions for a number of years. Everyone knew but no one said a word or tried to help as they were bound by their belief of salvation after death by their god. I have long overcome that trauma but there is one thing that stayed with me: the idea that people can do horrible things to each other - controlling, manipulating and abusing each other - and hide it behind their fears of eternal punishment. The lyrics talk about finding “Your Own Light” and being your true self, you don’t have to conform to others who tell you who to be just to fit in or out of fear. Trust yourself - you are worth more than living your life controlled by a bunch of rules written hundreds of years ago.”

Hey You

This is one of my favourite songs. I did a vocal cover at home and I am no sound engineer so the mix isn't the best. But I had fun doing this so I decided to upload it here!
