about

New Heavy Progressive Rock band Giant Walker release their second single ‘Optophobia’ on 3rd December 2021. Their first single saw them pick up coverage with the likes of Planet Rock, BBC, Louder Sound/Prog Magazine, Metal Sucks, Total Rock Radio, GigRadar, The Faction, Distortion Radio, Rock Meeting and many other respected publications. 

This new single kicks the intensity up a notch with a frantic sonic landscape and entrancing vocal melody that is both hypnotic and hazy.

“‘Optophobia’ is a fear of opening your eyes and the lyrics of the song are inspired, both by this, but also by the truth that our vision is merely our brain’s best guess of the world around us.” Vocalist Steff explains, “One of my favourite quotes is from the TV series, Mr Robot, ‘It's one thing to question your mind; it's another to question your eyes and ears. But, then again, isn't it all the same? Our senses just mediocre inputs to our brain? Sure, we rely on them, trust they accurately portray the real world around us, but what if the haunting truth is they can't? That what we perceive isn't the real world at all, but just our mind's best guess? That all we really have is a garbled reality, a truly fuzzy picture we will never make out?’”

lyrics

Shadows dance, hypnotise
If you are me, then who am I?
What you waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting?
What can you see now?
Come a little closer
What do you see?
I haven’t been here in so very long
What you waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting?
What can you see now?
How? Why?
Shut it out
What you waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting for?
You waiting?
What can you see now?
How? Why?
Shut it out
