I'll be posting two songs tonight, so stay tuned for the other one.
See, over the past month and a half or so, my voice has been getting progressively more and more fucked up. It got to the point where my throat felt like it was filled with ashes, and I could barely manage a gross, raspy voice. I didn't know what was causing it, until I realized, oh yeah - my voice started getting fucked up around the time I bought these new masks.
See, throughout the pandemic, I've been wearing these Linkin Park masks I got on Amazon. Y'know, just masks with the Linkin Park logo, cuz I like Linkin Park so much. My masks were gettin' old, so I found some new Linkin Park masks on Amazon and got those. They were made of different material than the old ones, but I didn't think much of it.
Then, 2 Saturdays ago I wore one of those new masks for an extended period of time, and my throat ended up fucked-upper than it has ever been in my entire life. I finally put 2 and 2 together and stopped wearing the questionable masks. My voice has been recovering, but very verrrry slowwwwly. I think those masks had some horrible chemical dye in them that fucked me up. Or maybe I was inhaling a bunch of horrid fibers. I'm not sure.
But I got really frustrated recording the other song I'm gonna post tonight because my vocals sound like poop and I couldn't achieve that magicalness that I always aim for with my vocal stylings. So, then I got all frustrated and started wailing on my bass and singing, and oddly, my voice came out sounding better than it has in this month and a half or so. So I quickly laid down a track of me singing not horridly, so I can be a little less depressed about the whole thing.
In short, this is a song where I reclaim a bit o' that magic in my vocal stylin's, as I sing about how my vocal stylin's lost their magic. I mean, this ain't perfect or anything, but it's better than some o' the other stuff I've been doing recently.
