Hello everyone! Here's my cover of the opener to Spiritbox's new album Tsunami Sea.
I like to keep y'all Patreon family better up to date on how I'm feeling about the channel and the covers, so here goes. This is my first new music cover in a while. I've finally built back up some taste in (or broke down some dread of) checking out new releases in our circle. One of the key elements has been consuming it directly, by which I mean: listening to just the music (no videos), not reading/watching a single external opinion about it (except caring friends' reccomendations), and just letting myself feel the music.
These might sound like extreme measures to many of you, which is why I'm not reccomending you do any. But I am sharing what it's taken for me to get comfortable with checking out new music again. One day I might write a little essay (or do it in video form) about this pervasive online parasocial hysteria that I not only believe dulls our aesthetic experience as listeners, but also even numbs the bands we love from feeling their way into what would really be their life's work.
Enough gloom (but not one inch less than necessary ;) and enjoy this cover!
