♫ Several Symptoms - Stylist

Pained by the constant tormenting, the taunting of my mental state, I yearned for companionship and understanding. Seeking solace in the cloaked, spiritual figure I was taught to confide in, I delved deep in the passages, the chants, the rituals performed in secret and isolation. My nostrils would fill with musky incense as I breathed steadily among the walls adorned with volumes of scriptures and tomes. You would appear before me, towering, gigantic, genial, placing a caring, tender hand upon my warm forehead. As we strolled through the flowering gardens, you would tell me about how I was protected by greater, unforeseen forces. How those that sought to ruin and desecrate my flesh, were bound to eternal damnation - a hellish justice - well beyond my comprehension. And once I was struck down by their vicious, unsuspecting hammers - ravished by their cruel, swollen hands, I distinctly heard your voice echoing - reassuring me of my spiritual protection. Nefarious guardian - executing my Hadic justice.

Several Symptoms quietly released this darkly delicate single in December. A sense of foreboding, synths hum and purr while her vocals drenched in echo and reverb, voice disbelief and vexation. Irascible intonations. Acrimonious articulation - adjuring for something greater to manifest.

Get it here.
