lyrics

We will walk where the ground gives in
We’ll build a cabin of stone and skin
And a little fire to warm our feet
We will taste the jam we spread
While fingers masquerade as bread
When everyone’s forgotten the taste so sweet
We will move like railroad tracks
We will breathe like candle wax
And every day we’ll find a new stream
And there will be no way to find us
We would let the world behind as
Water plays with eyes and sighs to steam

Every time I tell you that we’ll do this, you just stall
And you whisper “I don’t love you; I don’t love anything at all”

SOL: A Self-Banishment Ritual
by Seeming

1st & 2nd listen: a masterclass in what I'll call the "industrial crooner" style, since the actual genre morphs from one song to the next. nofatclips

I am a queer goth who works in climate. thanks for giving my soul an outlet for all this despair. I too dream of gutting billionaires... and would gladly drown when the flood comes for them. thanks for helping me keep the abyss at bay and stay in the fight. can't thank you enough for this album. alder-knight

Strangers

On both Avalanche and the Whirlwind Remix particularly, Seeming manages the seemingly impossible feat of making it sound like there's 2 or 3 different songs going on simultaneously, in the best possible way. Such a huge spacious sound, and immaculate production and songwriting. Also, I'm pretty sure Leonard Cohen would have heartily approved of this version of "Avalanche". <3 Conor Connolly
