    "October wind blows
    It makes a door close
    I look over my shoulder to make sure
    But there is nobody here
    I finally took out the upstairs bathroom garbage that was sitting there forgotten since you were here
    Wanting just to stay with us
    Just to stay living
    I threw it away
    Your dried out, bloody, end-of-life tissues
    Your toothbrush and your trash
    And the fly buzzing around the room
    Could that possibly be you too?
    I let it go out the window
    It does not feel good"

    good fucking lord

    Is this going to wreck me like Carrie and Lowell wrecked me?

    Carrie & Lowell is one of my favorite albums of all time.. That being said, this is far more devastating. C&L had a (albeit small) sense of beauty wrapped up in it to me, if that makes sense. This doesn't have that. At all.

    Pure, unflinching, unforgiving, sorrow and grief.

    Just finished the whole thing. Unapologetic, earth-shattering grief. It was a hard, hard listen.

    Just finished it at lunch while playing Breath of the Wild.

    Hyrule has never been so fucking depressing.

    I'm not like crying or anything but this is honestly the most depressing album I've ever listened to. Which I guess explains why I'm not crying cause depression is basically devoid of emotions and feeling. But it's also really calming and beautiful so I keep on listening to it.

    Eager to listen to this but I need to be ready. Seriously couldn't stop crying for like a half hour when I heard Real Death for the first time.

    I can definitely say I've never been this scared to listen to an album, haha. Might turn it on tonight, but if not tomorrow or Saturday.

    I can't decide if I want to stream this over the weekend or wait until I can pick up the vinyl next Friday.

    I listened last night.

    It was a little different of an expirience than I expected. However brutal this record is, it's also undeniably beautiful. i don't think that I have ever in my entire life heard songs that illustrate more love between two people than these songs do. With that being said, this is also the saddest album I have ever listened to.
    The line in the second track about not seeing his wife in the ashes, but rather he sees her in the sun - that was probably my favorite moment on the entire album. That line kind of sums up the album for me. That moment brought me to tears but it was heart wrenchingly beautiful at the same time.
