"So much of this record is almost about the insecurity of making records,"
"Did I get it right? Was it worth giving up another chunk of my life for this?"
"I wasn't creating mythology to hide the truth - it was the truth. I was looking for a way to find power in a situation where I felt completely powerless."
Everybody Scream is a Halloween-born opus that dives into witchy goth grandeur and emotional exorcism. The songs emerged from intense self-doubt about making records and decisions to sacrifice time and life. The creative solution was deliberate acceptance of off-tempo guitars, messy unfiltered takes, and imperfections left in place. A near-death experience intensified spiritual themes and fueled a search for power amid powerlessness. The album functions as both a spellbook and a survival guide, using Gothic aesthetics until something beyond aesthetics asserts itself. Recording unfolded amid creative chaos, producing clarity through letting go and raw expression.
