Why does Steven Wilson’s music feel like home to so many even when it sounds like sorrow, silence and storms?

This episode explores the emotional intelligence of Wilson’s songwriting and the raw, cinematic universe of Porcupine Tree. From the fragile honesty of Sentimental to the prophetic pulse of The Sound of Muzak and the aching nostalgia of Trains — it’s a journey into music that doesn’t just speak… it listens back.

Also featuring a reflection on Gavin Harrison’s rhythmic brilliance, this is an invitation to slow down and rediscover the kind of sound that remembers you.

Not escapism — exposure.

And for those who’ve always felt something they couldn’t quite explain…

This might be where it finally finds a name.

Some songs aren’t just music they’re confessions echoes, grief.

In this episode of Sound of Change, I sit with “Nutshell” by Alice in Chains not as a cover, but as a quiet tribute to Layne Staley and Demri Parrott.

Their love, their pain, their silence… it all lives in this song.

This is for anyone who’s ever felt alone while looking “fine.”

What we lost with Layne wasn’t just a voice it was a soul who spoke for the ones who couldn’t.

Take a breath. Let it sit with you.

Some songs don’t just play in the background they stay in the background of you.In this episode I’m not breaking down lyrics or talking about genre. I’m just sharing how two voices Layne Staley and Chris Cornell found a way into the quietest corners of my life.“Nutshell” and “Call Me a Dog” aren’t just tracks on a playlist. They’re rooms I’ve sat in. Mirrors I didn’t always want but needed.This episode is about what it means to feel seen by sound… to carry stories in silence… and to remember that sometimes the most broken songs are the ones that hold us together.If you’ve ever heard a voice and thought That’s how I feel, but I never knew how to say it then maybe, this space is for you too.

A soft beginning to something real. In this intro I will share why Sound of Change exists not as a polished show but as a space for misfits, music lovers and those who feel too much. From grunge legends like Chris Cornell and Alice in Chains to quiet acoustic moments and raw human stories, this podcast is for anyone who’s ever found truth in the static. If music has ever saved you sat with your silence or made sense of your chaos this is for you.
