Sorry for your loss, take the new foo fighters album for a spin. It has the vibe and lyrics about loss that could be similar to your national experience.
Thanks for the rec, those opening words right off the bat: “It came in a flash / It came out of nowhere / It happened so fast / And then it was over.” :(
You couldn’t know it, but this is a timely post for me. First, I’m sorry for your loss.
Our daughter died four years ago today. Some people suggest there’s a time limit for grieving. “You ought to be over that by now.” There’s no time limit though.
So sorry to hear you're a member of the club to which no one wants to belong...my son died in 1999 and I'm still learning to live without him. Be well.
Ian, first of all thank you for your kind words, and I'm deeply sorry to hear about your loss; the pain of losing a child is unimaginable. You're absolutely right that grief doesn't have a time limit; it's a very personal journey that everyone navigates in their own way and time. Remember to take care of yourself, especially today. Sending you strength and love my man!
It is nothing like the rest of their material. They even went as far as recording it pre much fully analog and with Ross Robinson as producer, the king of breaking down artists.

Didn’t know that was it’s vibe... might give it a listen now...

I hope you’re okay.
Will give The National a go tomorrow.

Sorry to hear that Jeremy. It doesn’t any easier, does it? Be well too.

Powerful blog, TY for sharing.
Some great grieving albums for me are:
The used - "the canyon" (concept album about losing his best friend)
Mac Miller - Circles
That Used one is new to me, I'll give it a listen when I get in that mood for sure!

So sorry, Jared. I've lost too many friends over the years and music has always been there to help.
Appreciate that Jeremy. Thank goodness for music!
Thanks Jared, and to you.
