My new album, Swan Song, is out now. For fans of QOTSA, Fontaines DC, Interpol.

I’m really awful at promotion and getting word out there, but I always enjoy the discussion this sub brings. So here’s my new album. Some of the songs came from a pretty dark place so it feels good to let it out.

First verse

let that shit wegith on my soul

Toxic relationships to make me Hole

but they always end up doomed

past 6 months they never bloom

maybe one day I can bury the hatchet

but my mind won’t let me scratch it

relive my fate though a stupid dream

But I Can't loosen my mistake it seems

can’t call a truce because it'll make it worse

Tried everything to reduce This curse

What did I do to deserve this pain

the swerve that it’s caused my brain

Now my mind is in stuck in shambles

Should I try again and take a gamble

But will the issues continued to arise

So maybe I should let it die

Snippet for "XxX", a song for my next EP

Went absolutely raw on the lyrics, all my hatred and love went on it. Shit that I wish I'd said, I thank I didn't but I had to take it out somehow. This is how. Love Y'all. MIT

Lyric feedback

I have been toying with this song for a few months now, and I think I've got a pretty good stopping point, but let me know what you guys think.

My living room altrock

Please take a listen at some music just put up. No need to purchase anything.

This is all myself performing, and recording at home. Nothing pro, just my passion. Thanks

Lost 10k streams on one song

Hi all, first not sure if this is the appropriate sub to ask but figured I'd try. I have a song that just suddenly lost 10k streams. It had 26,000 streams on Spotify I check a day later and it is down to 16k. It's old song, from 2021, so it has nothing to do with the way Spotify counts new release numbers.

Also it was never put on a shady playlist where numbers shot up overnight, it's a song that has been slowly and steadily gaining streams over the past 4 years. Does anyone know why 10k streams would just dissappear?

Song I wrote "Lost soul"

I was inspired to write this last fall when hurricane Helene was devastating thousands of people and feeling helpless and depressed about my divorce becoming finalized

Looking for producers who want to work with my lyrics (Juice WRLD/Lil Peep Style)

Hey everyone, I'm looking for producers who would like to work with me on my songs! I've been writing lyrics since I was a teenager - in German and English (although I prefer German) - and now have a whole collection of songs, beats and vocals that I really want to turn into finished tracks. My style is heavily inspired by artists like Juice WRLD and Lil Peep, so it's more emotional, melodic rap and hip-hop with a dark edge. I have a clear idea of my texts, but am open to creative suggestions and collaboration.

Since I'm still just starting out and can't afford professional production at the moment, I'm primarily looking for people who: • need practice material to improve their skills, • have fun working with vocals and beats, • and are interested in a creative project in the area of rap/hip-hop.

I provide you with my vocals and beats - so you can practice, try things out and let off steam creatively. In return I would be happy to receive the finished songs! Of course, I am available to you during the process if you need feedback or specific ideas from me.

If this sounds interesting to you or you know someone who would enjoy it, please contact me. I have several songs and am ready to send you the files. Let's make music together and pursue our dreams!

Thanks for reading - I look forward to your messages!

Parts of my Art:

"Throw stones at me, one could break it all, Like a star rock from the sky, let it fall. Or a black clock, ticking in my brain, Searching for a way, but it's all in vain."

Other Part:

"Red tears on the metal sheet, Addiction makes my stomach bleed. It's the only thing I can't beat. Look me in my eyes and recognize, It's hard to see the person cry."

Songwriting survey

Hi! I'm an Artistic Direction student and I'm doing a project for my master's degree which consists of developing a productivity tool specifically designed for lyricists (trust me it makes sense). If you've ever written any music, and if you're in this sub chances are you did, I would be very grateful if you could fill out this form : https://forms.gle/d46zvqdmToD4321Y8

I will try to keep you updated if anyone's interested, thanks in advance!
