this is a professionally replicated CD in an old-school jewel case. included is a 20-page lyric book with photos and scribbles.

CVRSEBREAKER is a zine of additional lore behind the autobiographical content of the EP, consisting of stylized imagery taken from nocturnal photo shoots done during the project’s creation, and fragments of relevant text written within that same timeframe (as well as some angsty old journal extracts by yours truly). together these pieces will tell a story.

to break a curse you must enter the underworld in search of the truth. this is my story of battling through the darkness to recover pieces of me that survived, and laying to rest the ones that didn’t. this is the emotional, transformational undercurrent of what this EP has meant to me in each stage of its creation.

24-page black and white A5 zine printed on purple paper.

where are you? i cannot remember the time my light went out in the second half of that broken decade i couldn’t see where the rocks were anymore so i smashed my body against them so i cut lines so i wouldn’t feel it and i took pills so i wouldn’t remember but that was just life support because i was already dead and only when the smoke cleared could i sit in the emptiness where i’d let myself die i’m still here
