Dear Diary…
Fondly, a song born from rage. Rage on behalf of a friend after her horrible experience with a horrible man, and rage on behalf of all women, everywhere. First written on the floor of my bedroom with the guitar I’ve had since I was 15, the words poured out in quick succession.
The lyrics are blunt and upfront, the building and unrelenting pounding of the arpeggiator mimicking the red-hot anger I was feeling in the moment. Nearly all the vocals in this track are the original scratch vocals. Any other take I did didn’t feel right, and could not capture the grief I felt for my friend in that moment.
It felt good to get pen to page, let some of that grief out. Sometimes it's good to feel angry, to release it out into the world and not let it bury itself inwards - so I thought I'd write a song to soundtrack that.
Until next time...
