An EP? But you released a 20-track album just last month! Yeah, but I'm bored and create a LOT.

These are some darker tracks I recorded, minus the bonus track. I really tried to put my emotions out there on this one, and improve my mastering techniques. I think this album sounds quite a bit nicer than the last release, and miles better than my last EP.



The opening track, "petrichor," is about the existentialism that comes with the knowledge of being inevitably forgotten. It's meant to be rather experimental as I used bass to help drive the riff home, and I experimented with just having my solos be just screeching and uncentered.

The next track, "all i remember," is about trying to forget but having memories linger in your mind. You might begin to see a pattern right about now. The song deals with distinct memories that are ingrained into me, that I could never forget. Production-wise, I wanted a more "post-punk" approach, using a driving, punchy drum machine to keep a sense of rhythm amongst the incredibly wavy and dreamy landscape surrounding it.

The final track, "pawns and kings," is a very personal track, lyrically. It's about a period of time where I felt incredibly alone to the extent of questioning the validity of who I am and how I feel. The vocals feel loud at first before slowly drifting into a cacophony, and the latter half of the track is noticeably more suited for live performance, with a long period of screaming, noise, and wailing guitar.

The bonus track, though much peppier, is about existentialism and being unable to stop thinking about what's real or not and what matters or not, taking production inspiration from the recent neo-psychedelia revival (Tame Impala, Crumb, etc.)
