Previous articles: Sergius Gregory Making Quiet Music in Homer, Alaska

back in my Identity Theory days, working as the music editor, i wrote this piece on Sergius. this was April 2009, and i had just unofficially interviewed him over the phone. he was finishing up the songs that would later become Moulting Season, the fourth of the five albums he sent me this fall. for one of the songs (Mysterious Bark) he borrowed the words of a Nietzsche poem, singing in this beautiful scratchy voice. i had to turn it off the first time i heard it because the combination of the dark words and the piano chords and his close-up voice made me feel dizzy and almost frightened. music can be powerful.

here is the link to that first article
