This is one of my favorite albums in my library. Phantom Spire is a black metal artist from Albany, New York. His sound design and vocal style is very beautiful. The perfect amount of distortion and very melancholy, atmospheric beats.

Everything on Ghost Box records evokes the weird & eerie folk horror-infused atmosphere I love. I’m also obsessed with songs that feature someone straight up talking or reading over music, so this is checking every box for me at the moment. I’m also trying to make stuff like this myself rn and finding inspiration in their catalog, so I‘m shuffling through their stuff and Advisory Circle and Pye Cornet Audio et al, all wonderful.

Holy Fawn demonstrates a mastery of controlling the ebb and flow of emotions in all their work. They take you from restrained intros and verses setting up the atmosphere with ethereal, droning melodies and vocals into swelling and intense choruses and instrumentals with fuzzy, distorted guitar and screaming vocals. I've never been a fan of screaming vocals but they use it so effectively and so selectively to add energy at just the right moment in the song. Nothing is used excessively, everything is in good taste, all of it culminating in an engaging journey through a mystical fantasy world. Best enjoyed at the loudest tolerable volume.

New York City is where I was born and raised on the upper west side of Manhattan. New York is a very fast paced and chaotic city to live in and that’s something I can't live without. I don’t think I could ever see myself living in a rural area, where it’s quiet and boring. I need to be surrounded by hectic energy, but it is nice to get away from it sometimes.

Life is fucked, make the best of what you got of it. Life is too short to be stressing all the time over the smallest things. Make your dreams happen now before it’s too late and experience everything you can, even if you're lazy and tired. Force yourself to get up in the morning and tell yourself that you're going to have a great day and make this bread. You don’t want your life to pass you by knowing that you didn’t live it to the fullest. See your friends, be creative, and be yourself because within a blink of an eye you don’t know when your life will end.
