about

The music to this one was part of my original writing output when I sat down to write what I planned to be a ‘darker, linear’ EP. When I got the vocal demo back from longtime friend, Steven Seibold from HATE DEPT. and heard ‘these flowers have no scent or color …’ I knew I picked the right writing partner for this soundscape! Cool minor-key guitar and synth ‘call and answer’ overlays the dark, repetitive drone bass line. The song ebbs and flows without getting overly grand. I have always been a fan of Seibold’s quirky biting industrial whit and delivery; and he intergrates himself seamlessly into what turned into ‘Almost Pure’. MC X


“What a great honor to write with such a longtime friend. It makes sense though. Michael and I have always been crazy about much of the same music. Not to mention, as supportive of one another as we could possibly be. This track came to me as a lush and tragic sounding plea for love. Every single one of my favorite songs are love songs. They don't have to be hopeful and sweet, especially from guys like Michael and I. This one is torn apart and weeping over what once was and the lyrics just dripped out like the last IV bottle in the ward.” … Steven Seibold

lyrics

These flowers have no scent or color

of the hours we once spent in one another

as we fade and each day is darker than before

and our love is just petals and salt on the floor

it's almost -

almost pure

almost

I've been sleeping underwater in dreams of sand

I would drown in your arms a better man

and if I crawl back to you once more

will the waves break me down and rip me from your shore?

we're almost -

almost pure

almost

All of the beautiful words that we said

the sickness and the cure

the fire, the laughter, an unkept bed

will just be what we were

almost pure -

almost
