28TH APRIL
Perverts - Ethel Cain
I'm not usually one for ambient albums. Honestly, this is my first listen for any ambient album. But a lot of the main things that I look for in music is lyrics. And I definitely got my fill, I guess, in a way, with this album. It's very, very, I don't know how it's to say, but relatable to a point in my life where I was struggling with that sort of thing. I won't go into more details about that, but one of my favorite songs on the album is called Punish, and that's definitely the sort of thing that I would have probably put on repeat in that sort of darker period of my life.
I don't know how else to explain it, but that feeling that I got when I was within that period of my life that I've just come out of, it sounds like this album. The album sounds like that emotion. I'm drawn to Vacillator in particular, and I can't tell why. There's a lot of unexplainable emotions that happened and I think the answer is listening through it again and again.
This is something you listen to in full, it feels wrong to add my "favourite song" into a playlist, it needs to be experienced in full everytime. This isn't something I thought I'd enjoy but I ended up getting a lot out of it.
