King Crimson: The Sheltering Sky
This was written over one listen. I mostly wanted to focus on describing the song and I kind of did that, but I don’t think it makes for interesting writing. King Crimson’s “The Sheltering Sky” is from Discipline. I hope … Continue reading

Sophia: It’s Easy to be Lonely
This was written over two listens and I feel that that was a good amount to get something down. I think that some of this is alright but I descended into a bit of a mess. I think that may … Continue reading
Motoi Sakuraba: We Form in Crystals
I’ve wanted to write about this one for a while, but kept on forgetting about it. It’s an interesting song. Very straightforward in ways, but also carries an air of mystery, so to speak. This was written over one listen. … Continue reading

Paradise Lost: Obsidian Review
So I started editing this and ended up re-writing a bit more than I expected. Not the whole thing, but close to half of the draft I had. I’m not sure as to what I think about this review. It’s … Continue reading
