Purchase: The Librarian - The Colony

With his first EP, The Librarian, paints a picture of a wronged love affair from the sting of romance all the way to the bitter end.

"The Hunter" depicts the excitement of the quest, the anticipation of the search, with a whir of wings, a thrum of blended heartbeats. Hope and passion take flight.

A dark warning, a glimmering of incipient pain, "Honey" foreshadows a sweet shedding of blood. The song builds to a realization that this will be both glorious and horrific, and, as the song falls, there is a sense of how it will culminate in a frozen wasteland of distrust.

In the thudding of a closed door, the heavy steps of evil, "The Enemy" reveals that what once was love is now a wound, seeping and pulsing with quicksilver pain. The juxtaposition of major and minor tones suggests the melding of love and hate, flesh, and blood.

Haunting themes and lyrics drive "The Hornet’s Nest" into the region of hopeless remorse, diving into desperate hopelessness. The wings beat and beat and can never stop.

JPLS from Minus offers an entirely different rendition of "The Hunter," equally as driven but far more sinister. He transforms "The Hunter" into a relentlessly pumping challenge, tinted with ominous shadows and prophecies of pain.
