about

this album was mostly written and recorded between 2021-2022, and then finalized in 2023. all sounds are by mike / the exit bags

thanks to anyone who supported my previous album, hopefully you like this one too

"our sun will clean its holy wounds" is loosely based on the idea of becoming an increasingly unreliable narrator as time passes, while still trying to piece together one's worries and fears. or, the concern that the way your mind processes information in the future will have regressed beyond your control, therefore making it impossible to satisfyingly reach closure. it's not a fully dedicated concept album or anything, but that's a recurring inspiration, anyway. the songs more specifically are about things like horror, acceptance, self-love, memory loss, growing old, insufficiency, and other things. i think this is probably best listened to with headphones, seated, and left alone. but, do with it what you want.

a loose recollection of an old scandinavian(?) folktale, a blasphemous mockery of puritanism • a bassline, simple iterations • self-disgust, nonsensical analogies and naval-gazing • i am scared of dying • the mortal loss of a new love, serial experiments, saskatchewan • barefoot gen, nuclear fallout, disgusting imagery • i am scared of growing old • imposter • you’ll probably outlive me • my presupposed last thoughts, it’ll be in your hands, good luck

This is JYHR16.
