Today Jason Schauer of Adakain tells us about "Sky is Falling" from their new EP "Silhouette Of Lies". Here is the story: The writing process for our newest EP "Silhouette Of Lies" was substantially different from our previous album. We took ample amount of time to really find the sound that defines us as a band. We practically lived in our rehearsal spot for months on end holding nothing back experimenting with different sounds, melodies, and tones. Riffs came out left and right and we would try to fuse them together as best we could sometimes working sometimes not so much. We wrote about 15 or 20 songs before we decided to take the material to the studio in Knoxville, TN.
The song "Sky Is Falling" was quite a bit different lyrically and melodically before we entered the studio. It just didn't seem to really capture the vision of the song so with us living in an RV park down the road from the studio we pretty much would eat, sleep and write the album. Needless to say the final melody and lyrics got finished in the studio.
"Sky Is Falling" is about the inevitable ending of something great in your life. It could be someone you are in a relationship with or a good friend. The list goes on and that's what I love about this song is that it can be inturpreted in so many different ways. The phrase " Sky is Falling" resembles all of the negative repercussions from the situation falling down on you. This song is definitely one of my favs.
