Faster, FASTER! by HEADY

Nov21 2021

Faster, FASTER! is a concept album inspired by the 1981 anthology "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark," a book from my childhood that established horror and the supernatural as part of the world I always inquired about. I remember getting nervous walking into the school library because I knew I was about to be entranced by some spooky sh*t. The term "Faster" not only relates to the pace change at which my music is being perceived, but also the speed at which my life is accelerating. These are both elements of horror in a way, as the acceptance of fate brings with it a very daunting challenge full of sacrifices and torment. I wanted to honor the books with this project because of the way darkness operates in my world of music, and I think the answer is found right there in the stories. A lot of the time, there is an unexplainable creature that exists right in the middle of your daily life, and most of the time you don't know what it is or where it came from, but it's apart of your life now. My music deals with a lot of the darkness inside me, and this album specifically was a reminder to exist with this darkness inside, even if I don't know what it will do. At the very least, you might get some pretty cool art out of it...
Thank you all.
