| An Ep To Call My Own
So this is my very first EP and I'd love if anyone decides they want to listen to it!
Below are bands/albums that influenced the making, if not sonically, at least in terms
of what I was heavily listening to while making it. Enjoy! And feedback is welcome.
notreesnoneever.bandcamp.com/releases | | 1 |  | Chelsea Wolfe
Apokalypsis
There is a palpable melancholy to this album, and Chelsea Wolfe continues to be an influence
on me. At its core, Apokalypsis is a very human album and that's all I ever set out to make, a
very human statement. | | 2 |  | Twin Sister
In Heaven
Twin Sister have a very meek, almost timid sound on occasion. But what stands out to me is
how they use that quality to make dreamy, extroverted music about knowing you'll never have
a relationship, or the body horror themed 'Kimmi In A Rice Field,' which to me stands out as
one of the best songs of the decade. | | 3 |  | St. Vincent
Strange Mercy
Annie Clark is a guitar wizard, without question. Whether her influence reads or not, I aspire
to make a grand statement and be even half as bold and technicolor vivid as the music she
creates on Strange Mercy. | | 4 |  | Bloc Party
Silent Alarm
This album, along with Mogwai's Young Team, is my musical ground zero; I learned to play
bass and sing and learned what atmosphere even was from these two behemoths of records.
And Kele Okereke, in a way, made it seem okay for a black male to do things outside of what
we're typically defined as, and for that alone (beyond the gorgeous Silent Alarm and all it's
post-punk revival charms,) he and his band will forever remain vital to me. | | 5 |  | Mogwai
Young Team
It starts with a sample of a friend reading a review on their live show and ends with a beautiful
flute melody atop noisy washes of feedback. Mogwai's Young Team encompasses what post-
rock has the ability to be. It is a transformative experience awash with youth and death and
the stars and whatever big thing music can be. | |
