Hurray For The Riff Raff Pieced Arrows

The song lends itself to a narrative climax. The first time I heard it, I felt like I was in the middle of a brewing storm.

This blended well with themes from Alyndas song which is largely about running from a past that always catches up to you. Hence physical running in industrial landscapes. Metal. Trainyards. Escapism. Cold anxiety. Being stuck in a trauma Alynda Segarra Vocals, Elect
