[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]Ki was the intro to my theme, the idea of solitude and shadows. Quiet moments and threatening sentiments that kept trying to crescendo into something dark. Overtime, it crescendos\u2026 yet in the beginning of the record, it stops itself. There\u2019s a \u2018regulator\u2019 on the intensity that holds the storm back in songs like Disruptr, Coast and Gato. Each time it takes itself to that point, it\u2019s followed by an immediate retreat to the shadows. The point that it gets to in \u2018Heavens End\u2019 however, is the first moment that it \u2018lets it out\u2019 and it is followed by a sort of 70\u2019s jam, almost like a regrouping. The lyrics in \u2018Heavens End\u2019 I found (to my surprise) were very against religion. Not against the sense of infinity or spiritual connection, definitely not atheist, but angry at organized religion. The cruelty and divisiveness of it. Seeing the environment and life from a sense of unity stemming from my experiences recently with different perspectives really made me surprise myself at how bitter I\u2019d become towards it all. I have always been kind of \u2018on the fence\u2019 about religion, so when Ki finally let\u2019s it rip on Heavens End, I found myself shocked that a lot of my anger was actually directed towards THAT as a theme. It was so typical, yet it seemed understandable\u2026 that anyone or any organization can claim ownership of the things that I\u2019ve always felt profoundly attracted to, yet more than anything, just happy to be a part of, seemed the height of arrogance, and above all\u2026exclusionary and really mean spirited. The experience made me realize during the process that \u2018perhaps the anger within me is not directed at anything other than a misdirection of spiritual intensity\u2019\u2026 people had been born and had died in my life, I had hurt my friends and band mates, I was confused, but it seemed that through the purging of this I was coming to some conclusions, and purging some baggage was necessary. Religion was first on the list. So Ki moves on, and when it finally gets to the song \u2018Ki\u2019 \u2026it had a sort of epiphany. A sort of breakthrough of the first level, where the religious implications are gone, and the idea that what defines my humanity is more of an \u2018I don\u2019t know, but I\u2019m happy to be here\u2019 kind of frame of mind rather than a \u2018life is lived through fear of punishment after death\u2019 Ki included some great people in the recording, Notably drummer Duris Maxwell, Bassist Jean Savoie, Keyboards Dave Young and singer Che Aimee. The point of it was \u2018personal accountability\u2019.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
