one thing about the first track where the distortion kicked in...it was a little jarring and blindsided me completely.

Just in response to the "jarring", you got to remember that the Post and doom genres werent supposed to be the 'beautiful, translucent forgiving, all the time. To jarr is to confront the listener, shocking the attention, slamming in such a way to prevent things from getting boring.

I've enjoyed the EP (good job on that btw...) but i do have one question. Why that name? Solemn is an adjective and not a noun, so it reads awkwardly for me. And on that note i'm amazed that something like "Solace in Solitude" isn't already a taken band name!

hahaha yeah, I noticed that too but I don't think it matters that much to be fair.

i was considering 'solemnity' but it had too many syllables, despite it now not making sense

i'm kind of shallow heh, the point is put across though

and honestly i was kind of kicking myself for not choosing 'of solitude and solace' since it seems more fitting, might change it, probably not though, changing band-names is usually kind of messy
