"The qualities of this style of screamo do something much music fails to do (maybe because this is a very specific scenario)... being stuck in your room, isolated, with nothing left to do but binge random content you have lying around to stimulate your brain and distract from how lonely and detached you have become; this perpetual state of limbo is something many more people have unfortunately come to experience in these past two years. This is a short and sweet demo, each sampling used appropriately to add to this overall sentiment (bonus points for Taxi Driver & Cube... kinopilled). Now, this is just coming from me and this might mean something totally different; but this is what resonated deeply with me. I must've listened to this thing at least 20 times by now. If you've shared this sentiment, then this is a must listen. Innovative, personal, wrapped in a warm blanket."

File Updates - As Cities Burn
Added the third version of "The Nothing That Kills", as Bernie pointed out exists. I'm not sure entirely what it was on... my guess is that it's a Myspace demo since I can only find it in 92kbps, grouped with the other 2 tracks on the 2004 EP. It sounds like a later version than the one I originally included (the one shipped w/ the EP).
For these two reasons, I'm just going to label it as "Of Want And Misery: The Nothing That Kills (Demo)" as a bonus since it's a lot closer to sounding like its final version.
Post updated here.

File Updates - A Day In The Life
The lost A Day In The Life song, "Mean Machine", has been found, which I included here in the "Nine Reasons To Say Goodbye" post here.
This song was missing because the EP itself, "Paper Chromatography: The Fade from Dark To Light" from 2003 was lost to obscurity, and all the other tracks, aside from the one, reappeared on the 2004 split. This means I also got 320 versions of those tracks, therefore I've updated them as well on that post here.
Big thanks to I Have Dreams Too for finding this, Chase and I have been on the lookout for it for a long while, so to finally have it up is a relief. The thing that has hurt that most is that the song is FANTASTIC. Go listen to it on YT here.

"The rough around the edges, loosy-goosey, and experimental debut release that would plant the seeds for their other releases. This gives it a special quality that make it a unique experience. Slipdiver has been one of my favorite bands recently, and going back to this lets my enjoyment come full circle. A humble and intimate experience that is even more incredible with retrospective viewing."

"This exceptional three piece band from Ohio brings with it a plethora of influence and creative ability. Songs are diverse, engaging, and overall just plain lovely (in my own words). Bedroom melancholia that is relaxed without breaking the fast and manic pace of expressive introspection. This is a great way to use elements of a genre to their full capabilities in telling a compelling narrative. One example; using a squacky-styled scream in some of the songs could come across as amateur for many (doesn't bother me too much, though it can sometimes), but the way in which they use it feels very deliberate; slowing it down, picking it back up, changing the pitch... the extent of their creativity is so fucking impressive in what they're able to express. A small detail among many that makes this demo a must amongst skramz bois out there. Also lyrics are super relatable lmao."

Update
Haven't posted for a few days? Here's what's up:
I haven't allocated as much time to looking at music as I'd like, therefore I haven't posted. This could be for a few reasons... (probably that I'm behind on my coding class and it's been driving me nuts). Noise has also taken time off to do some projects as well.
I'll get back to it soon but I wouldn't let this blog down without letting my peeps know.
Here's a meme in the meantime:

"There's something really special about this album... it might be a product of the era with an unassuming name but this doesn't really as feel derivative or uninspired as you'd expect, quite the opposite; fresh and original. Some parts can go anywhere from A Skylit Drive to Drop Dead, Gorgeous, to Anatomy Of A Ghost (to those who aren't aware that's a pretty diverse range of sound to the genre). It doesn't appeal to lowest common denominator desperate to be picked up by a label, I really get the feeling they were trying to pick apart their influences and seeing what they could create (DUNGEON SYNTHS, people!). My only wish is that there was more diversity with 10 tracks... but considering I rated My Last Dying Wish so high I don't hold that against it. Thanks to Liam for sending the files he had and for the recommendation!"
