absolution

i just saw that it's the 20th anniversary of this album. i remember it well, though i did not come across it quite so early in my life. it was a few years later when i was a little bit older. it was when i first started to appreciate the late nights, it was when i had my first heartbreak. i rmember listening to this album at 4am in the morning, in the silence and in the dark, the broiling, swirling melodies stirring my already embattled emotions... bringing me through tears to rage to feelings that i did not know existed.
