Welcome to For The Record, my newest and deepest post style. On these we deep dive the music behind the posts. Today’s post is a literal monster of a post but I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.
(Warning: everything below these next two paragraphs is very explicit. You have now been warned.) We’re back in the Let’s Lose Some Sleep post style today. You know what that means: things are about to get steamy in here, as you can see. After a couple of months apart and a lot of thinking and growing on both of our parts, we’re back. I know for me I spent a lot of time figuring out what I wanted. What I needed. If things needed to change, what were they? After talking quite a few times, she had done the same and wanted to know what conclusions I had come to. So we talked through it and, at the end of it, realized that we’re way better together than not.
Can I be honest? I didn’t sit down planning this outfit. It sort of built itself.
I started over at Cold Ash because they’re celebrating their anniversary sale. It’s running through August 6th, so if anything here catches your eye, you’ve still got a little time. I’m not saying this post is enabling…but I’m also not not saying it.
Sometimes losing your place in something you helped build leaves you trying to separate what belonged to it from what still belongs to you.
SCATTERBRAIN’s BITTER got me thinking about Brian Burkheiser, his account of how his time with I Prevail ended, what he’s creating now and what it means to finally tell your own side of a story. The open gates, darkness and light became my way of bringing all of that into the photo.
You can still be angry. You can even be a little BITTER. Just don’t stop building whatever comes next.
Of all the colors I’ve explored so far, blue has been the quietest. It doesn’t demand attention the way some of the others do. It simply asks us to pause for a moment and consider what we’re still holding onto. Not every burden needs to be carried forever. Not every disappointment deserves permanent space in our lives. Not every difficult chapter needs to remain open.
