Sigh, writing this once again.
SAVED! is the first album by Reverend Kirsten Michael Hayter. Known more as Lingua Ignota. This was my most hyped release of the last couple weeks when I knew of its existence. It's just as heartbreaking as her previous music.
I like to keep more private about things. I wish I had done more so in the past but whatever. Her past work always resonated with me, as a victim of abuse, multiple times. The first such occasion being at age 6 at a "church". I ... read more

WARNING, TW For the following topics: Depression, Suicide, Eating disorders, etc. if your going through a rough patch in life or aren't doing the best mentally, it would be best if you read this when you are doing better.
Sewerslvt is an artist that I feel defies description. I feel like if you took pure, raw emotion and translated it to sound, it would sound like this. The amount of dread that comes from her work is insane. This one I feel is the hardest to listen to because of the subject ... read more

I consider these to be the best album/EP covers. Maybe I'll throw in a single or two.
