When I look up at the nighttime sky on an ice-cold winter’s night, or look deeply into an astrophotograph of a deep-space-object, I feel alone.
The aloneness stirs me up inside, sending chills down my spine, or infuses what I think is my soul with a feeling of humility and awe. It makes me forget about my mortality, or the strife of life, and makes my humanity apparent for a fleeting second.
It is this spaciousness, this immensity, and this boundlessness, that I feel when I listen to the music I play on Metallicity.
