The Destination #5 – Dishevel Heavened
A tree in roots in soil, a soil in Earth in world. In world a universe alight, in light, dark incarnate. January 29th, 2007, 7.41 AM Why do I pretend I’m complicated, when in reality, I am just blind? I am a pigeon on the wire, trapped by the wind and afraid to move. I… Read more

Dusty Edinger – “Welcome to Our Demise” review
Final verdict: 9/10 ★★★★⋆˙⟡ Dusty… Dusty, Dusty, Dusty. I love your stuff, man, I really do. This was a great song (as I will briefly attempt to demonstrate, though it really does speak for itself), but why does the cover have to be AI-generated?
