I'll find myself a lover to mix with all my colours I'll burn myself a path in the woods to hide away from others I am making armor A pearly second skin fit for hiding in Mountains leading farther than I could dare to go sinking into stone My skin becoming harder first with quite an edge; an ocean wears it down A fear of losing armor Light bleeds through the cracks to meet an empty space I'll find myself a lover to mix with all my colours I'll burn myself a path in the woods to hide away from others I am making armor A pearly second skin fit for hiding in Mountains leading farther than I could dare to go Sinking into stone My skin becoming harder first with quite an edge; an ocean wears it down A fear of losing armor Light bleeds through the cracks to meet an empty space

about

Nine Demons is Lex Metcalfe's first full-length album under the name Feyla. This new record is a return to solo form after years of work in her band Waxlimbs.
Taking inspiration from field recordings and stray pieces of hardware, there is a dusty and organic tone to these songs, like collected memorabilia that loses luster through time spent in drawers and closets. Yet while relic may be at play, there is also something sharp about the music- it largely remains prickly and fuzzed out.

The Demons in question are malevolent artifacts of past experience. Old rolls of film full of surprises, dust-caked piles of notes, old works. Nine Demons is a dream catcher for these things, a filter containing the basic recipes for little pains.
