Roots in the Wreckage: TiLT 360 Finds Beauty in the Struggle
There’s something undeniably haunting about TiLT 360’s “It Grows”—not in a ghostly way, but in how it lingers, echoing long after the final note fades. It’s the kind of song that doesn’t ask for your attention—it commands it, quietly at first, and then all at once. With this track, the seasoned Ohio-based band peels back layers of pain, memory, and resilience to reveal something beautifully bruised and deeply relatable.
From the first verse, Billy Smaltz’s vocals sound lived-in, like pages torn from an old journal. He doesn’t sing so much as speak through the weight of experience—his words shaped by years of battling inner demons and weathering life’s storms. “It Grows” isn’t a glossy, polished anthem. It’s raw rock at its most honest: the guitars burn slow and steady, the bass hums with intent, and the drums thump like a heartbeat trying to stay steady in chaos.
Thematically, the song digs into the roots of trauma—addiction, identity, and the ache of transformation. But instead of wallowing, it stretches upward. There’s a quiet optimism beneath the darkness, a sense that even in broken soil, something can still grow.
This isn’t background music. “It Grows” is for late-night drives, heavy hearts, and anyone who’s ever had to rebuild themselves from scratch. And TiLT 360 proves that after all these years, they still know how to make every note count.
