‘Glitches’ by The Infinity Process is an explosive metal track that questions the nature of its reality.
The song’s energetic instrumentation, typical of hard rock and metal, is loud. The muddy drums and melodic guitars feel in keeping with the song’s theming. The instruments alternate their pacing, beginning in a burst of energy before slowing down to allow the vocals to take over.

‘Glitches’ in Instrumentation
The vocals on ‘Glitches’ hold the crux of the song’s message. The lyrics set the tone, aided by the soundscape to ask existential questions about their existence. The chorus asks, “…Is it real or a simulation?/Is our world just a cool mutation?..”
The words seem to be from the perspective of someone who is awakening anf describing their motions as though they are a robot. A feeling that something is rediscovering themselves and becoming self-aware, “…feel the gears turning in my mind…”
The variation in the instrumentation continues to guide the song through its motions. By the bridge, it breaks down, while the vocals pan from ear to ear, layering on words with reverb before going silent for a beat. This is before making an explosive return for the final chorus.
The lyrics here are a bit altered, “Am I real or a simulation?/Is emotion a cool mutation?” The lyrics here turn inward, from questioning the reality of the world to questioning the existence of our inner reality. After this, the instrumental pulses and slows to a halt.
All in all, ‘Glitches’ by Infinity Process is a raw, energetic track that keeps listeners engaged with its variation and interesting theme and concept.
