MarshMelody this is one of those albums that feels smarter than me that I still find myself enjoying greatly.

also, thank you for the dedication, Maru <3 Favorite track: Harpy.

ruingazer Basically the best of the "Post-Black" style (Krallice/Liturgy/Yellow Eyes/Altar of Plagues) plus Jazz and atmospheric bits that just make a phenomenal whole. That bass is amazing! Favorite Track: The Last

FlowersinitsTeeth So happy to say I am absolutely the target audience. This is so beautiful and magical. Uplifting and heavy. I will listen to it forever.

FoxPuppy Like much of the music I enjoy, this is not easy to describe. It's got a hoof in metal, a hoof in jazz, a hoof in ambient, and a hoof in progressive rock...and maybe a few more hooves elsewhere. Fans of the PSB story and fans of unique and challenging music will find much to love about this album.

you're my everything you are my sunshine you're old and grey and full of sleep you're my pickle-faced consumptive Mary Jane your name is a golden bell hung in my heart I would break myself to pieces just to call your name won't you come home Bill Bailey? won't you come home? my wild Irish rose hasten, mirth, being with the a host of furious fancies look down that lonesome road o'er the mountains of the moon down the valley of shadows ride, boldly ride you can find them if you're brave the bull covered their footprints let nothing you dismay ~

Deep within me lives insatiable hunger Inferno stoking itself Afraid to fathom just how deeply it's rooted It may engulf me as well I tried to feed it with bond familial I raised a son born of cold I tried to fill it with riches of conquest I've come to hate the sight of gold Searching For the One thing That can Make me Feel Emptiness Desolation Anhedonia Years like hours passing me by Beads in the hourglass of time Suspicious of the fact that I Can't see myself within your eyes there is a stillness inside kingdom that's covered in ice blasphemous furnace, desire Ignited by beauty Madness and Melancholy Engulfing Over and over This wretched monotony Nothing Can please me Until I Have them all Why can't I just be happy Nothing makes it feel better Why can't I just be happy (Screaming internally)

The Last 11:48

about

"The Last Unicorn" was one of my favorite movies and books as a child, and as I've gotten older, my lived experience has only brought me closer to the characters in this story. The book is, among many things, a story of a magical and beautiful creature who becomes trapped within a body she finds disgusting for the sake of her own safety. She spends so much time in a human body that she nearly forgets who she really is. The parallel this draws to the lives of so many queer and transgender people I have known in my life is honestly a bit uncanny.

I was 16 years old the first time I posted music on the internet. I had no idea at the time it would take me another 16 years to finally release my first solo LP. Don't ever let anyone tell you it's too late. I have tried to start this album more times than I can remember within the span of those 16 years, but there always seemed to be something keeping me from making any progress. I kept the vague idea of someday writing an album about a miasmic crimson bull and a brave nameless unicorn in my back pocket, neither giving up on the idea or deciding to commit to writing it before I was ready.

Over the course of the pandemic my personal and professional life changed pretty drastically. I was laid off of my job as a waitress, went through some major shifts in the shapes of my family and social circle, and most importantly, I got sober. I took some time to do some serious self reflection on the nature of art fear and imposter syndrome, and eventually rekindled my love for metal after years of focusing almost exclusively on soundtrack and jazz music. Finally, my lived experience as both a musician and a human being had given me the tools that I felt I needed to properly convey the many complicated emotions "The Last Unicorn" makes me feel.

Once I finally got started in earnest, recording "The Last" became an obsession. This album was written, performed, recorded, mixed, and mastered by me in my home studio with no external budget to speak of. It is the product of many, many 16 hour days and skipped nights of sleep. In the beginning I really tried my best to write a "metal album", but somehow jazz kept happening during my recording sessions; eventually I embraced the strange juxtaposition of a serious extreme metal album that is heavily jazz and soundtrack influenced, which is also about a magical unicorn. Finding a target audience for this piece of art hasn't been easy, and likely won't be going forward. If you are here listening to this and reading these words, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to experience this piece of my soul. This album is a love letter addressed to a unicorn with no name, to her progenitor Peter S. Beagle, and most importantly: to you.

"The Last" is dedicated to all transgender people. The world can be an ugly and difficult place, but it is better because you are in it. You are beautiful, and I see you.

Special Thanks:
I can thank no one before I offer my deepest gratitude and solidarity to the indigenous nations who have and continue to live on and tend to the land of Minnesota. Thank you to the Dakota nations of the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux, Prairie Island Indian Community, Lower Sioux Indian Community, and the Upper Sioux Indian community. Thank you also to the Anishinaabe nations of the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, White Earth Band of Ojibwe, and the Red Lake Nation.

On the technical side, I would like to thank the extreme vocal institute, which has been an invaluable resource in learning how to do vocals for this album. Thanks to Jack and Janelle for letting me scream my ass off in your basement studio. I also need to extend a huge thank you to the band Krallice and the production of Colin Marston. Your music and mix aesthetics have been a profound inspiration to me, and opened my eyes and ears to so many possibilities. Thanks, guys.

Thanks also to my father and Janice, who helped me pay for software to master this album, as well as the album art. And a huge special thanks to Morgan Robbles for creating said art, as well as helping me promote this album on social media. Couldn’t have done this without you all.

None of this would be possible without the support of my friends and family. I want to extend a personal thanks to Jack, Solomon, Claude, Codex, Ophelia, Jim, Miles, MarDee, Juniper, Imogen, Joel, Steve, Cameron, Jill, Morgues, and Dain. Your emotional support, guidance, and encouragement mean everything to me, in this and all of my endeavors. I love you all. <3

Thank you to Peter S. Beagle for writing characters that I see myself in, and worlds that I can lose myself in.

I need to stop before this album ends up looking like a Dr. Bronner’s bottle, but I need to sincerely thank anyone who took a chance and listened to this album. I hope it speaks to you. Thank you.
