Siren Song is an observation on how our consumerist society has tricked us into believing that accumulating a mass amount of products equates to a better life. We’ve been deceived by salespeople to believe that we must consistently buy new products - albeit these products often being produced to a subpar standard, henceforth forcing us into a cyclical system of repurchasing, which results in a large amount of it sitting in landfill, polluting our planet - to stay relevant within society. This leads to us overworking ourselves in order to indulge our materialistic habits, therefore, causing us to buy these products with not only our money, but with our life too.

The track’s title and theme is inspired by the Greek Mythology tale of Odysseus and the Sirens. This is a story in which a man falls under the beguiling spell of the Sirens, whose sole intention is to lure innocent sailors to their early graves for their own benefit. The Sirens represent distraction and deception; two tactics that eerily mirror those used in modern day commercialism.

Siren Song is a criticism of consumerism, so releasing it on Black Friday, a day that’s arguably the epitome of consumerism, felt like a natural fit. After hearing this track, we hope some people ask themselves, “do I really need this? How many working hours of my life will it cost me?”. That simple line of questioning will surely help your pockets, your life and the environment. Humans are powerful; it’s time we push materialism out of the driver's seat and take the wheel ourselves.

LYRICS:

Siren songs
We are seduced

We wish
We wish
We had it all

We are seduced, deceived
To wish we had it all
To wish to have it all
We won’t be fooled

Work to buy
Just to comply
Live a lie until you die
We won’t be fooled

All our dreams
Are about
Possessing everything

Siren song

The more you have, the more you want
The more you have, the more you want

We will be lost in waste
Regret
We were never free
We were never free
Never free

Work to buy
Just to comply
Live a lie until you die
We won’t be fooled

All our dreams
Are about
Possessing everything

Siren song

The more you have, the more you want
The more you have, the more you want

Lost in wasteland, wasteland
You don't know how much time you waste
Just for a taste of waste

All our dreams
Are about
Possessing everything

Siren song
Siren song

The lure of temptation
Siren song

Back off
We don’t need you

Who is dreaming about
Getting more

Who is dreaming about
Getting all

Getting more
