A walk into the shadows
Revisiting this album brings an amalgam of emotions for me. First of which is elation as this was the first project I was able to actually translate the feelings I had that bothered me, into music form that proved to be therapeutic for the first time. The other emotion was a deep, cutting, and profound sadness, as this project captured merely a portion of the deep dark pain and depression I was feeling in relation to my children both being on the spectrum, and our family being in the thick of its ills. That sadness was also compounded with rage and resentment at people who I thought would be there for me, but have failed me. When I listen back to the album, I am proud of my progression as an artist, and I still feel the dull ache of the pain of that time period.
