Description/Reviews: 

"The sounds of silence" project was intended to be released as a double album but for various reasons, mostly financial, it was decided to be released as two separate albums "Part I" and "Part II". Both albums relate to each other being both concept albums.
"Part I", released in November 2011, was focused on familiar day to day problems that everyone can relate to in a way or another. "Part II" is more focused on political divergences and dictatorship subject, wars, governmental mistakes etc. Selfishness part II is the continuation from the previous album track, Selfishness part I.
