It’s a great day to be a Wind Walkers fan! The band have announced their forthcoming EP I Don’t Belong Here out on Friday, October 3 via Fearless Records. In celebration of the news, the quintet has dropped their new track Silk & Static and the official music video. Amidst glitchy electronics blended with crushing riffs and seamless melodies, the song’s central theme is especially relatable to those who have a neurodivergent condition.
When asked about the inspiration behind the track, Wind Walkers vocalist Trevor Borg shared: “Writing Silk & Static was like staring into a mirror and unpacking every frustrating thing about myself. It came from a place of not understanding why my mind felt so chaotic all the time and why I kept getting in my own way. After recently being diagnosed with ADHD, the pieces started falling into place, and it shed a different light on the song. It was very eye-opening in the fact that I wasn’t alone, and that this kind of internal noise or “static” is something others live with too. At its core, I wrote this song to offer comfort to people who can relate to feeling overwhelmed and misunderstood, while trying to make sense of themselves.”
