Ok, maybe I'll use this as a chance to exorcise something from my head and talk about the song that broke me.....
I generally gravitate towards the darker areas of music ( duh!) but lately, I have become pretty obsessed a style of music termed as Darkgaze.... This stuff is dark.... Musically minimalist, emotional, downright doomy.... I do love it, but not healthy for someone with mental issues!
Well, found this band " trees of eternity", total doom but the vocalist, Aleah, an incredible writer and singer, just really touched me.... So vulnerable, particularly in the song " a million tears".....So, downloaded a heap of her other work, all marvelous and then thought I'd learn a bit more about her.....
Then I found out when she recorded "Trees of Eternity", she had cancer and passed away from it before the album was ever released......
I put "A million tears " on repeat and cried for about half an hour.... Still can't get that song out of my head.....
So yeah, no more doomy music for me for a while!!! Lol...
( bit of context, got cancer myself,only had the non fatal diagnosis recently, so all a bit close to home....)
P.s. if interested, try "touch my face" by That Which Remains....
And remember Aleah's beautiful , vulnerable voice....... It's all that remains of her..... So sad....
