Faceless truth-saver Apollo Zillion responds to the mass desensitisation of the modern world on ‘System Failure’

Seeking the apparently controversial truth on the open-your-eyes single that will shock the core of your brain, Apollo Zillion shines a light on the silky strings and shining shackles that distract so many from the obvious brain-washing in abundance on, ‘System Failure‘.

Apollo Zillion is an experimental artist who might (or might not) be from sunny Sydney, Australia, that makes an edgy blend of original music to savour.

I lie stagnant until I am in the presence of music, which throws my senses into euphoric colour and darkness. Manifesting this sensation is the core of my purpose as experiencing euphoria espouses one’s higher self.” ~ Apollo Zillion

Taken directly from the debut concept EP, ‘Prescriptions‘, Apollo Zillion has skillfully – albeit shockingly – just reminded the globe that there is more than meets the eye at every corner. With greed reigning high like a stuffed King who is about to burst from consuming too much, this is a startling reminder that the exemplary souls need to get back on top again before the world crumbles.

We have forgotten who we are and what we feel. When I felt this brutally sapping away at my very own self, I decided to craft five aural pills designed to reconnect the listener with their true emotions.” ~ Apollo Zillion

System Failure‘ from the faceless and rather mysterious Sydney, Australia artist Apollo Zillion, guides us into the very doom that has somehow taken us into a terrifying place where so many are scared just to venture outside. With an animal farm mentality that has crushed the pure essence out of the integrity of so many like a blender, this is a heartfelt message to wake up now.

Hope will be lost faster than we think if the course of this planet is not altered quickly.
