I've never had love at all for black metal and I could right a poetic speach on why, but this is the only album that has ever intrigued me. Still I'm not sure though, just something about it... Anywho it got me thinking about some themes Gowi did and didn't bring up about the album. Loneliness, misery, ECT. I've been looking for albums to identify with. I'm looking for albums of almost any genre with themes of loneliness. Maybe a pick from God will fall from the heavens and be a Mix of loneliness and optimism or something. Still, beggars can't be choosers I guess. https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=481340#481340 Anonymous Thu, 3 Aug 2017 03:18:27 GMT https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=481340#481340
