Howdy.

Yes, my goth/emo bullshit is spreading into new sub...tildes? (If that's what they're called. I've been on hiatus long enough to forget the name.)

I've been curious about something I've called "heavenrest" music recently. A song so soft, so perfect, you could listen to it on your way out of life itself.

One of the few examples I have is the song "Seagulls" from the indie rock band Saturday Sun (linked below.)

My question to you.

You're on your way out. You've said your goodbyes (perhaps) and made your peace. What plays in the background?

"Seagulls" x Saturday Sun

I, personally, have a lot of music I listen to, but I can't just throw anything on when I want to jam. I have certain bands and certain genres whenever I'm feeling strongly one way or the other. Sad usually gets (to name a few) The Smiths, Blue October, or Motion City Soundtrack. Angry gets Periphery, some early Coheed and Cambria, or some early Incubus. Happy might get Weezer, Fleetwood Mac, or Polyphia. To name a few examples.

Or sometimes, I'm just feeling a certain band/sound and nothing else for days at a time. At the moment, it's been Thank You Scientist. If you can't put bands to emotions, what have you stuck on repeat lately?

Howdy folks.

Some of you will be pleased to find that this is a ~music post of mine not about emo rap, hahaha.

Across the past six months I've found myself infatuated with a new sound I can't quite put the finger on. These songs have something in common, in spirit. And that's what I'm after.

Here's a little playlist I've assembled under the title of Soul Goth. If you have any other recommendations, give me everything you got.

Or if I'm describing something what already exists; let me know.

Yalla.

"God's Gonna Cut You Down" x Johnny Cash

"Pray I Won't Wake Up" x Honky Tonk Hustlas

"No Sugar In My Coffee" x Caught A Ghost

"In A Week" x Hozier

"In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" x The Dead South

"Loud And Heavy" x Cody Jinks

"The Devil Wears a Suit and Tie" x Colter Wall

"When Jesus Comes" x Uncle Sinner

"The Devil Had a Hold of Me" x Gillian Welch

"Fingers To The Bone" x Brown Bird

"The Piano Has Been Drinking" x Tom Waits

"Graves" x Whiskey Shivers

"Burn The Witch" x Shawn James

For me it is Holy Wars by Megadeth.

The entire album really, but this song just blows everything away. It will never be surpassed.

Tornado of Souls is right up there, but i have to choose just one so...
