Love this, Matt. Thuds like a bowling ball hitting the bottom of my stomach.
I think I’ll come back and read it again later.

Thank you! I appreciate that Sarah.x
(as an aside, I associate ‘thud’ and ‘stomach’ with a fried risotto cake I had yesterday)

isn’t the idea to create visual representations of songs? Not to be overly critical, but to my eye this has very little to do with the music and much more to do with a poem that has little to no connection with the song.

The brief, to begin with, included photography and poetry – and still does, just that most people decide to stick to the lyrics + descriptive comic/illustration format. Anything that’s a reaction to a song of the album in a creative manner is welcome.

Hey Lia; when this went live (nearly two years ago now) I figured it was about reacting to a track with words and pictures, and not about using the lyrics as a blow-by-blow structure for a story.
