"In the Body Cage" is not just a song—it's an introspective journey into the psychological prison of human existence. Crafted entirely by Poria Maftoon, this single is a deep sonic exploration of isolation, existential burden, and the limitations of the physical form.
Released on January 10, 2021, In the Body Cage marked a pivotal moment for Endwayz—both in sound and in vision. It showcases a masterful fusion of aggressive metal instrumentation and haunting philosophical lyricism, capturing the essence of the human struggle between flesh and freedom.
The lyrics in In the Body Cage delve into existential philosophy, drawing influence from thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche. The song critiques the illusion of freedom while pointing to the constraints of corporeal existence. It asks: Are we ever truly free, or are we eternally trapped within the boundaries of flesh and mind?
Lines such as:
“Veins like wires, pumping fear—
This body’s cage is far too near”
...highlight the tension between the inner self and its physical vessel, painting a bleak yet thought-provoking picture of internal imprisonment.
If you're a fan of dark, thought-provoking metal that blends raw emotion, complex lyrics, and masterful production, In the Body Cage is a must-listen. The intense atmosphere, heavy riffs, and philosophical edge create a listening experience that lingers long after the final note fades.
This single stands as a defining release for Endwayz, representing the depth and uniqueness of their musical and conceptual identity.
