For Emma, Forever Ago.

Have you ever loved something so much, no words will ever suffice to how you feel? That's how I feel about many things, maybe I'm too passionate. I was playing Bon Iver's For Emma, Forever Ago and fell once again in love. I remember two years ago searching Rough Trade's website and coming across the gorgeous album cover. After listening to it, my entire idea of music transformed. It was like nothing I've heard before. For the first time I honestly understood the idea of music as an art form. I was beyond belief that a musician could create something so beautiful without really focusing on fundamental structure. Without boundaries, art can grasp an emotion beyond human understanding. Bon Iver's falsetto voice also played an important role to the unique sound. It's a beautiful album, anyone who hasn't listened should. It's never too late.

"This is not the sound of a new man or crispy realization
It's the sound of the unlocking and the lift away
Your love will be
Safe with me"

Love this band, Sun Airway. Can't stop listening to their new album, Nocturne of Exploded Crystal Chandelier.

"when the moonlight turns your shadow into a traitor
turns you over to a world you can't relate to
i'll be there just to lasso you the moonshine
in the back of your mind just like a wind chime
i'll be there when you call my name oh naoko"

Oh Naoko - Sun Airway

Song For a Lover of Long Ago

Desolate and haunting, it spreads within. Silence echoes, a gasp for air, a whisper through the night. Crimson streaks the sky. The glow of light, as it peaks through cracks, let's out a single howl. A silent world shatters, lifeless. Again.
