about

When you leave an abusive relationship, kick a bad habit or an addiction you might find yourself unexpectedly not knowing what to do with yourself for a while. In our case it's the jittery side effects of leaving social media and wondering if you were still better off on it in the end? But this is a time of self-reflection and realizing what has brought you this point of wanting to quit something urgently but still having doubts about it at the same time. It's what makes you a person. It's what makes you real. Conflicting emotions are okay even if they're not successfully portrayed on social media. Turn inwards for a moment and find that old You again.

lyrics

I’m floating like a piece of plastic
Floating through the air
I don’t belong I’m a pollutant
Welcome nowhere

I never knew how to make it
I never knew how to take all of those turns
In their world

That’s why I’m turning
My inside in now
That’s why I’m burning
My prison down now

I wish I was as useful to myself
As to machines
I’m plastic like the most of us
That never get seen

I never knew how to make it
I never knew how to take all of those turns
In their world

That’s why I’m turning
My inside in now
That’s why I’m burning
My prison down now

I never knew how to make it
I never knew how to take all of those turns
In their world

It never felt right to fake it
It never felt right to fake it taking turns
With all the world

That’s why I’m turning
My inside in now
That’s why I’m burning
My prison down now

about

The Fisherman & The Sea Helsinki, Finland

From Finland – a country that allegedly holds more metal bands than park rangers are able to rescue from their gothic photoshoots in the hinterlands, and where disoriented polar bears roam downtown shopping centres – hail singer-songwriter Jon Eden and his band. His roots also put him in Hamburg, Germany thus planting him somewhere in the Baltic Sea in compromise – hence the name of the band. ... more
