SIN CLASSIFICATION: WRATH
>Just calling wrath "anger" is ignoring so many freaking layers of STUFF that wrath can truly be. Longing, feeling betrayal, getting denied, being told something you don't believe; all triggers for anger, but it's the nuance each of these things carry that separates just "being mad" from "being wrathful." Because wrath, to me, carries WANT. For recompense, an apology, change...There's something almost desperate about wrath that I think it really interesting; it's an entirely different beast just waiting to explode from within. Maybe I am playing too much Persona...>I came all the way back to Japan for just 2 days in order to record live and in person with the oral cigs, and those guys are a joy to work with. I couldn't believe how excited they got over some of my takes, I thought to myself "is it really that good...are they just being nice..." but it was honestly one of the most fun and most pleasant recording sessions I've ever done. They were not afraid to ask for re-takes when some lines lacked impact, but they kept the energy high and gave me good ideas. Despite the jovial mood in the booth, this song is deep and it's also dark, and says a lot about me that I think some people may have a tough time hearing and realizing. It's not just about anger, it's about pain. It's about pain that leads to anger, the longing to be loved and appreciated but also seeing yourself as the commodity you may be- just something that can be consumer and thrown away, like garbage, when they're through with you.
>This is why we write music!!>The things we can't outright say, they carry so much weight. That doesn't mean I'm not a positive person. It is because I can write these things through music that I can continue to look forward and smile down that path, with you guys here for the ride all along.-Yours, Forest Calli
