Lauren Bousfield: Fire Sale

With this song I tried to suggest some of what was going on at the surface level but mostly stuck to the imagery I felt was being suggested by the music. Most of this was written over one listen. A … Continue reading

tricot: Tokyo Vampire Hotel

I’ve wanted to do these a bit more frequently and I’m not sure as to why I have not. This was written over three listens, though the last one was split up a fair bit due to how quickly “Tokyo … Continue reading

Killing Joke: In Cythera

This one took a bit longer to write than I thought it would. I wrote a few sentences last night. I then wrote the bulk a few hours ago and finished it off a few minutes ago. I don’t think … Continue reading

Blind Idiot God: Thunderhead

Godflesh: Be God

One listen, but with a couple of pauses to catch up. I don’t think I’ve quite captured the song here. There’s a lot I could write about it, but you could say that about a lot of music. However, I … Continue reading

Big Dead: First/Last

Once more written over one listen. However, there were a few words added after the song finished. This is a bit messy which probably is to be expected, considering most of my writing. I think I captured the sense of … Continue reading
