Frankie MartinelliPublished 30 days ago in BeatVictim or Survivor
TW: Mention of self harm and suicide attempts I'll preface this article with I have never listened to any other songs by Citizen Soldier. I had never heard of them until I found out from an Icon for Hire stream where they told fans about an "upcoming collab," being with Citizen Soldier. As soon as I saw that it was on Spotify, I listened to it over and over... And over because of the lyrics.

𝐑𝐌 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐭𝐨𝐧Published 2 months ago in BeatHyperfixation Songs (and why they are a less expensive option than Pickleball)
First, let's get this out of the way! It's been a few months since I have published anything on Vocal. I've been lurking here reading and commenting but not writing anything and also not entering any of the challenges, not even the non Vocal+ one that I wouldn't have to pay to enter. Why not? Why wouldn't I bother coming up with something for such a cool challenge?

Jen Dixon – The Sound Political is personal. The rumbling scandal around the Teesside freeport might seem arcane, but the whiff of dodgy deals seeps into people’s lives. And, when those people are gifted songwriters, it sparks the creative process. Jen Dixon’s work has tended to be a response to her own relationships and feelings, but the more she read about the freeport in the likes of Private Eye, the more she was inspired to write.

Vice Killer – The Dark Side of the Railway Forty years after the Miners’ Strike, the scars are still keenly felt in northern England. Although the members of this County Durham band wasn’t even born back then, the atmosphere of the former coal-mining communities around their native Peterlee pervades their “Keep on Fighting On” EP. The title track is the most explicitly political cut, an angry swipe at Thatcherite politics that taps into a deep seam of resentment over a government that stripped communities of work and identity while bringing nothing in return.

Music has always been my sanctuary, a place where I can retreat and find solace amidst life's chaos. But it wasn't until I discovered Taylor Swift’s album Folklore that I truly understood the profound impact music could have on my emotional well-being. This album, with its haunting melodies and introspective lyrics, has become my emotional anchor during a particularly tumultuous period in my life. I first stumbled upon Folklore during a late-night scroll through my streaming app, looking for something new to accompany my restless thoughts. Released in the summer of 2020, this surprise album from Taylor Swift was a stark departure from her previous pop anthems, delving deep into indie-folk territory. Curious, I pressed play, not knowing that these songs would soon become the soundtrack to my healing….
