“Permanent Solution for a Temporary Problem” by Sjelløs is an Honest Reflection of Personal Traumas!

The Norway-based artist Sjelløs has recently released her album, “Permanent Solution for a Temporary Problem.” Sjelløs is a Nordic project that fuses djent, post-metal, and ambient deathcore genres to create an impactful musical trail. The project explores harsh, real, and unspoken subjects of everyday life. It’s not just a musical collaboration, but a platform where themes of identity collapse, trauma, and transformation take centre stage. Sjelløs is defined by its concept-driven approach and experimental edge, drawing from both existential philosophy and raw human feeling.

“Permanent Solution for a Temporary Problem” turns the chaos of inner wounds and outer wars into a haunting musical diary.

Their recent album, “Permanent Solution for a Temporary Problem,” reflects personal life experiences that people often encounter when they are in the turmoil of life. It is a musical diary of a person living with anxiety, depression, and dissociation. It’s a twenty-two-song album that explores moments of defiance and numbness. The opening song, “I Ghosted Myself” is a reflection on how it all begins with self-neglect, slowly leading to an illusion of self in “Was I Real or Just Well Written.” As you move towards other tracks, you realize that the album is not about finding solutions, but rather spilling out the truth in the most honest and unfiltered way.

Tracks like "I Was Just Background Noise" and "Permanent" epitomize the project's emotional depth, offering solidarity to those feeling unseen or worn down by the world. Other tracks like “Unsent,” “They Never Asked if I Was Okay,” “I Was Just Background Noise,” question one’s place in others’ lives, asking if they even matter in this world full of shame. Closing with the title track, “Permanent Solution for a Temporary Problem,” the album, through eerie transitions and fractured sonic landscapes, suggests that sometimes survival is the only option we have. The masterminds behind this project, Sjelløs, Ekko, and Loke, together create a world of their own and portray the harsh realms of life when someone is under deep emotional conflict with oneself.
