Rolo Tomassi

Where Myth Becomes Memory

Drip

---

I guess, since I am making the rules here, I am going to put this on my playlist. I may need to skip the first little part, though...

Vocals

I think this is a solid vocal for this style. The growling is much preferred for me, but her singing voice works.

Music

I feel like the voices and sounds at the start make me feel super anxious, and remind me of a panic attack. I would love to know the reason and feeling behind it - could be just that. The change in the music at 1:20 is welcome. I do like the combo of soft and harsh elements. The keyboard stuck out at times, particularly notable at 3:20. They seem to know how to lay it out in a pleasing way (minus the start).

Lyrics

I feel like this drip is feeling anxious about your situation. There is more and more regret and need to get out.

On the worst days it’s growing, growing so slowly
What to embody?
A plea for the remedy
Forced into a place that never felt like home
And if it takes me here then where is there left to go?  

It’s been strange and stranger still
Freed from the fears that paralyze
Always distaste, always regret, the least of it
A revelation into reality unspoken
Between the signs and the sounds, taking shape encompassing
