illusion_is_mineToday I decided to take a mental health day off work to recuperate from my long week. I'm glad I did because I ended up not getting much sleep last night. I went to bed around 8pm, and ended up waking up around midnight, and not going back to sleep until around 3am I believe. At one point I started reading to see if that would help.
Truth be told I was a bit depressed yesterday, but after listening to a bit of music I started to feel a little bit better. It's amazing how music can really make me feel better. My mom told me once that when I was first born they would put a radio in my crib to help me sleep. It seems that music still has the same effect on me as an adult.
As for what I've been listening to it's been mainly Utada Hikaru, Lacuna Coil, Chelsea Wolfe, Self Defense Family, Tiger's Jaw, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Oceans of Slumber, Zeal and Ardor, Jaurim, Trivium, and Dir en grey. Speaking of music I've Zeal & Ardor's new album on repeat lately. If you don't know who they are they are a unique black metal band that fuses elements of black metal with gospel, and slave chants. It's one of the most interesting bands I've heard this year. This song is from their previous album, but I think the video is really cool so here ya go. I like how the first youtube comment is "I guess I'm a satanist now" XD!
