Roni "Rolle" Laukkarinen a.k.a Streetgazer I suffer from Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). When I'm having a really bad day, this particular album is the ONLY 100% real way to soothe it all away. I have used this for years as medicine. These songs bring tears to my eyes. It's wonderful to listen... This album has a larger than life meaning to me. Know this Matthew, you are an angel. Your work is not just music, it's more like godsend magic. Thank you so much for this gem, I now finally have this as FLAC to listen with my beyerdynamics. Favorite track: The Heavens Swung Their Blinding Gates....

Sea Thank the gods for random YouTube mixes, for without it I would have never discovered Aural Method and my life would've been worse off for it. Favorite track: I Dreamed of Choirs Slow and Steady / The Song Was Ours, Its Woe Was Heavy.

This Is For Our Sins
by Lowercase Noises

supported by 233 fans who also own “When I Drifted I Heard A Faint Melody”

There is something haunting about the family having zero clue about WW2 in its entirety. I remember learning about them and wondering and I still wonder now how many are still in the wilderness, driven there by atrocities or not. Many find being alone to be fear inducing. But they left and isolated out of fear to begin with. This music is just the tip of the iceberg for how haunting and emotional the situation is. It does its job as well as possible, though. Amazing. jacensolodjo
