writing progression

As I reflect on my recent writings I feel that I have improved on the feeling that I put into it and all the thought that I have been using. Recently I have been able to understand and feel the words and music of Nine Inch Nails’ Pretty Hate Machine. Because of this I am looking at these techno stylized metal songs and giving them a flavor with non computer generated instruments (though some parts were originally recorded with real instruments). I focus on the emotion that is presented in the lyrics with the way that they are spoken and try to emphasize the parts that I feel need emotion from me. On the song Sanctified I use my bass guitar only focusing on the vibe that it presents vs. the guitar and try to compensate with my vocals the best I can. Most of the lines in this song are repetitive so I try to ad a difference where it can be used to break the consistency. I really try to focus on the emotion and vibe placed in the song for the presentation to project what I feel on those who listen to it. I also was writing lines for a new poem that focused on my occasional spontaneous depression that lasts only a few days or so. I focused on exactly what I was feeling and turned these feeling into words. I tried to use some figurative language in my descriptions of feelings to show how I felt. I’m fine now but I thought capturing this dark piece of my life may produce a good set of lyrics or something to build off of so I could write my own material and be able to project it as I was doing with the Nine Inch Nails songs that I was playing.
