Mutism is an alternative-rock / shoegaze project led by Mylan Graulus. It was born from a love for walls of sound that tell a story, driven by a passion for raw music, and influenced by giant bands like Radiohead, Deftones, Slowdive, Smashing Pumpkins, and much more. Their music is focused on translating philosophical inquiries, melancholy and raw emotion into sound. This is brought to life by loud, angry, but also sensitive and fragile sounds. The result is that the listener can get a glimpse into the pondering and spinning minds behind Mutism.

As a student of philosophy, Mutism's lyrics delves deeply into philosophical themes. The lyrics explore the nature of existence, the search for meaning, and the complexities / absurdness of human consciousness and emotion. Mutism questions the general perception of reality, and translates that confusion and frustration into music.
