In Their Words: “Full of potent metaphors for the darker aspects of our human experience, the season of winter lends itself to thematic explorations of death, desperation, and weakness. The Weight of Many Winters is the second in my series of four seasonal EPs, and of all the tracks on the Winter EP, I especially wanted the title track to sound like winter. There is a beautiful stillness that settles on the world after a heavy snowfall that is unique in our noisy modern times. I wanted this song to embody a silent moment of honest and sober reflection. In essence; doing business with your soul in the middle of one’s ‘Winter of Discontent.'” — Graeme James
