about

cover art by Giotto

I decided to just go kind of crazy on this release. and it shows. this release is basically just "songs" (more like soundscapes) about obsessive love and religion. which, I'll admit, is a bit odd.

there's spoken word and lots of effects and the whole thing was produced lo-fi and entirely flow-of-consciousness and most of the tracks are long so I'm sorry about that.

it's mostly noise and shit but there are two more conventional folk-oriented tracks, "Another Song in the Key of G" and "The Noise".

I doubt anyone will listen to this but it felt really really good to just liberate myself from the expectations of others and make noise that feels so right to me.

this record was completed in one night.

Another Song in the Key of G is dedicated to Allison. the rest is dedicated to whoever the fuck wants it.

except Kianna who didn't help me. fuck you, Kianna. fucking jerk.
